I offer ADHD, ASD, Learning Disability, and other mental health testing to clients ages 7 to 70 years old. I have been providing mental health assessments for over 10 years and have completed nearly 2,000 assessments in my career. I offer thorough testing, including batteries used at the University of Minnesota Neurological Assessment clinic, where I trained, which provides clear insights into specific areas of strength and difficulty, and highly customized feedback for clients and their families based on assessment results.

Se habla Español! If you're a burnt out parent, an over thinker, consistently getting in your own way, unable to create new habits, a worrywart, someone who experiences big feelings, or someone with an unmanageable inner critic... You can keep coping the way you are OR we can upgrade the system! Our lively, challenging, encouraging providers at ElevateEQ Health can't change who your boss or manager is and they can't tell your in-laws to stop being critical or judgmental. However, they CAN help you identify the goals, words, boundaries, and actions you can use to communicate with others and improve your life experience.

I’m Kimberly, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC) — and founder of ZOLA Mental Health. At ZOLA, I believe therapy should feel like a genuine, supportive space — a place where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. My goal is to help people from all backgrounds untangle the stress, pain, or uncertainty you’ve been carrying and find clarity, confidence, and calm. I work with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or big life transitions. My approach combines warmth, compassion, and evidence-based strategies like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy and mindfulness. I focus on the whole person — your mind, emotions, relationships, and routines — because real change happens when we address every part of what makes you, you.

Do you ever feel like something is off? Maybe a significant event (or something you see as small) has shifted how you engage with your world. It may even go farther back - seeing how others engage the world and seeing something different there. We all take in the world in unique ways, shaped by many different lived experiences and lessons learned. My ideal client is someone who is looking for a space and an invitation to get curious, about their story, or what their bodies might be able to teach them for those interested in practice from somatic experience lens.

!Immediate appointments available! Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and finding the right therapist matters. I believe therapy is a relationship first - one built on trust, authenticity, and feeling comfortable enough to be yourself. I enjoy working with teens (15+), young adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, grief, and everyday stressors. I especially enjoy supporting college-aged individuals and young adults as they navigate life’s many changes and pressures. With my experience as both a School Counselor and Licensed Therapist, I'm forever passionate about helping clients build resilience, strengthen self-confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and authentic. I often incorporate humor and creativity to make therapy feel approachable and tailored to you! While I draw from many evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT, and ACT, I adapt each session to your unique needs and goals. This is your space, let’s figure out what you need to thrive! If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you with compassion, authenticity, and a little humor along the way, I’d love to connect!

Are you anxious and overwhelmed? Are you feeling alone? Are you grieving a loss? Are you depressed? Do you feel like no one understands you? I want to create the space for you to share all of your emotions and problems so you can start living the life you dreamed of. I want to understand what you are feeling and I want to help you get to the place where things are better. I provide counseling for adult women specializing in trauma, complex grief, depression, anxiety and Christian counseling.

Life can be stressful and having a safe, non-judgmental place to explore worries, fears, and relationships is so important. Finding a therapist that is a good fit is important as well. I have had the opportunity to work with a wide range of clients since I began my career as a therapist over 23 years ago. In my private practice I currently see individuals age 18+ and I have a few unique specialties: overwhelmed women, perfectionism, burnout, workplace mental health and super commuters or road warriors and/or their spouses. I am a LGBTQIA+ ally and am currently conducting sessions, therapy and coaching, in-person and via telehealth. Individuals may choose to focus on how perfectionism or overwhelm are impacting their lives, self-esteem, relationships, career dissatisfaction, or motherhood. Decreasing fear of failure is a useful goal in these scenarios as is exploring how any of these issues might relate to feelings of anxiety and depression. For the road warrior or their partner, I can help navigate the unique challenges, stressors, and benefits of this type of relationship. I also offer coaching sessions for clients on a variety of topics including but not limited to: deciding whether to embark on a super commute or accept a job that involves frequent travel; career change/job search; strategies for maintaining a strong relationship despite being apart; strategies for marketing a book; and how to use writing to increase your visibility in the world. In addition, I speak on a regular basis on a variety of topics including burnout, workplace mental health, leadership & empathy, perfectionism, and road warrior wellness. You can find links to articles I’ve written or contributed to on my website. Feel free to reach out and schedule a free 15-minute phone call to discuss your goals.

Accepting New Clients!

I believe a safe, authentic therapeutic relationship is most important! Accepting New Clients! If your mind never stops, you feel stuck or lost, you're hard on yourself, boundaries feel difficult, people-pleasing is getting in the way of your peace, ADHD or executive dysfunction is impacting motivation, timeliness, or emotional regulation, or life changes feel overwhelming, we may be a good fit. Therapy with me is a space where messy thoughts, swear words, and laughter are all welcome.

Whether you feel disconnected from your goals, identity, or direction in life, I aim to help you build clarity, compassion, confidence, and sustainable change. If you’re ready to take the next step, you can reach out directly or schedule online, and I offer free consultations.

I care for patients ages 15+ who come from a diversity of backgrounds. This practice is ideal for busy college students. A common theme for my clients is feeling burned out in school or life. You won't be one of 35 clients seen in a week, which is typical in most practices. Instead you will have a dedicated, compassionate psychologist provide you the most evidence-based psychological therapy, coaching, or consultation. I use cutting-edge behavior therapies based on the best science in the field. I match you to the most effective therapy for your issue while individualizing a treatment plan to meet your specific goals and needs. You should receive more than a cookie-cutter treatment plan. With a boutique practice you get access to the best treatments customized for you. While each treatment needs to be adapted for a client, I tend to match the most effective therapy to the client's needs. For example, I often treat depression initially with behavioral activation and then may add on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (adds mindfulness and acceptance) or Functional Analytic Therapy (addresses relationship issues). Clients experiencing anxiety often benefit from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and components of exposure. The gold standard for OCD is exposure and response prevention. For trauma, I typically start with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and add exposure (CPT, PE, or WET). I want to deconstruct social structures that limit human potential or induce pain and suffering. Gender, Race, Religion, and Sexuality are social constructs that have very real consequences for the world, social groups, and individual lives. As a White psychologist I continually am evaluating how white privilege harms my clients and BIPOC individuals and communities. Similarly, I am evaluating how my social position may harm others whether it's intended or not. I participate in social action and I need to do more. I believe that a psychologist must integrate gender, race, class, and sexuality into their conceptualization of their clients. These intersections are where people live and ignoring oppression perpetuates it and may prevent a client from getting better.

Immediate openings; Licensed in Iowa, Michigan, and Minnesota! I believe that everyone can benefit from having a warm, genuine therapist by their side as they work through difficult feelings or experiences. I aim to help my clients increase their self-awareness and insight to make meaningful changes in their lives. I help my clients explore their goals, strengths, values, and help my clients reflect on beliefs and thought patterns that may no longer serve them. I enjoy using humor with my clients, make sure to celebrate successes throughout the therapeutic journey, and use a balance of challenging and encouragement to foster growth. I understand that everyone's needs of a therapist are different. Prioritizing a safe, nonjudgmental space for those I work with, I use a person-centered approach to collaborate with my clients to create a therapeutic experience that works best for them. Making the decision to start therapy can feel overwhelming, and it is important to feel as though your therapist is a good match. I am here to answer any questions about the therapeutic process you may have and to discuss how we could work together to reach your goals.
