Kim Chen

I have over 30-years experience as a social worker serving diverse, vulnerable populations and empowering clients to transform themselves. I believe in meeting clients where they are; assessing them as part of their larger, dynamic systems; and treating the whole person. I derive particular reward from working with clients struggling with traumatic issues, working with neurodiverse clients, and am an ally to the LGBTQIA community. Success is achieved for me when clients reach their therapeutic goals! In addition to providing therapy services, I also work as a Behavior Consultant with individuals who have intellectual disabilities in the Medicaid Waiver system and am a Certified Autism Specialist. I've completed Critical Incident Stress Management training and EMDR advanced training: Healing the Hidden Wounds to prepare me to participate on Northeast Indiana's Critical Incident Stress Management team providing mental health support to first responders following critical incidents. I have also completed Somatic Experiencing training and consultations through the intermediate year and will complete this certification in March, 2025. I'm happy to offer Somatic Experiencing coaching for personal growth (no diagnosis needed) on a self-pay basis to those who are interested in the SE approach.
