Doctor Kimberly Smith-Benson is by far the most dedicated, experienced, and knowledgeable Therapist I have ever had. She goes above and beyond for her patients and I have never once felt judged by her. All of her other staff are friendly and welcoming. Her office has a really great and calming atmosphere. I hope you like 80’s music. :)

Dr. Benson is absolutely incredible. She asks all the right questions to get you thinking and searching, and has the most empathetic and caring responses. Her toolbox is expansive, and she shares relevant recommendations based on what you are going through. I have never felt this so understood and heard. I recommend Dr. Benson to everyone that is looking to get deeper with themselves, heal, and resolve trauma.

Dr. Kimberly Benson has had a passionate heart for helping others along their journey towards wellness for many years. She has volunteered her time and her materials to work with many in recovery from their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. Her Clay in the Dark workshop is incredible. I got to experience it first hand. The beauty of this workshop was that many of us in rehab felt special, cared for, and relieved afterwards. She has a warmth and a kindness that makes her completely approachable. She has helped me along my path and my journey. She is a great role model and has so much to offer. I am grateful to know her.
