About Kimberly Thorner

I am a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) in Maryland, Washington, DC, Virginia, and California.  I received my Masters in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University and subsequently worked with teens, adults, and families throughout Silicon Valley.  I have experience in both community health as well as private practice and enjoy working with clients from all backgrounds.   I am also a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Provider (PMH-C) and have specialized training in maternal mental health issues.  I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP).  

As a marriage and family therapist, I am trained in psychotherapy and family systems.  I help clients explore their current symptoms and challenges through the lens of relationships (family, romantic, work, and friendships) and their “problems” within those contexts.  My previous academic experiences and working in Washington allow me to provide meaningful support to professionals and students in higher education.  I see myself as a strong ally and feel greatly privileged to witness my client's growth in meeting their goals. 

Originally from the east coast, I returned to establish my private practice in the DC area where I began my previous career in education research and policy. I also hold a Masters degree in Education Policy from The George Washington University.
