What Kimberly's Clients Are Saying:
Thank you so much for your time this morning with us. I think you hit it out of the park! I most appreciated you giving us a tool to set small goals and manage time. I also believe it is important for Faith to have some accountability to someone who is not her mom or dad, so I thank you for stepping up and agreeing to meet with her to that end. She has been beating herself up with guilt for not performing. I explained to her that it is not healthy to be motivated by negativity and to try and focus on the reward of having free time as her source for motivation. My hope is to help her stop the vicious cycle of guilt, develop accountability, and build her confidence and self-esteem through achievement. I explained that the schedule was not set in stone but merely a map of the possible at the time we made it.
(Parent of 6th Grade Student)

 

I wanted to thank you for your time, interest, and investment in Ellie’s personal development and academic progress in her time under your help, direction, and coaching. We’ll see what the Lord does as He opens and closes doors and as Ellie applies herself.
(Parent of High School Junior)

 

I have loved working alongside you and tag-teaming to support our students and teachers. You are the best advocate for students and parents who need an amplified voice. Never stop pursuing help and encouragement for them. God has and will continue to use you to bring peace and a plan to so many families.
