Spiritual Integration
Assisting Those in Florida & Wisconsin
Clients who adhere strongly and passionately to their faith as Christians, believe that both marriage and sexuality are sacred. Because of the sacred nature of both, clients want to trust that the therapy they receive is informed by the same set of values. As an spiritual integrationist, Kimberly has been trained as a Marriage Therapist and Sex Therapist in how to uphold and celebrate the boundaries that keep marriage and sexuality sacred. Through this lens, Kimberly will use Biblical principles and spiritual practices in therapy to the degree desired by her clients.
Due to her specialized training Kimberly is also sought after by people of other religious traditions to provide a framework for value-based sex and marriage therapy.

Do not despair, thinking that you cannot change yourself after so many years. Simply enter into the presence of Jesus as you are and ask him to give you a fearless heart where he can be with you. You cannot make yourself different. Jesus came to give you a new heart, a new spirit, a new mind, and a new body. Let him transform you by his love and so enable you to receive his affection in your whole being.
