More about Kimber's work:


"I specialize in the treatment of trauma.  Because trauma is an experience, and not an event, the reprocusions of trauma can result in a number of symptoms which have become a focus of my practice.  Each person's expereince of trauma can result in a different expression of the resulting pain, depending upon personality, other stresses in the person's life at the time of the trauma, and the support or lack of support experienced by the individual, as well as other mitigating factors.  These expressions and resulting treatment focuses include attachment difficulties, eating disorders, post traumatic stress disorders and disorders of extreem stress not otherwise specified, depression, anxiety, and self injurious behaviors, sexual and relationship problems, panic attacks, flashbacks, and phobias, and harm to others."
