LCSW
Kim Releford
Mental Health Therapist
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege to work with individuals and families of diverse backgrounds and across the lifespan. They have taught me the power of hope and resilience, and my passion is for helping people. I have been a UK employee and supervisor for more than 20 years, and I am keenly aware of the needs and challenges of employees struggling to balance both work and life. As a therapist, I provide a person-centered and strength-based approach to addressing life’s challenges in a safe and supportive environment. I have served individuals and families struggling with depression, anxiety, substance use, life changes, self-image and self-esteem issues, relationships concerns, and grief and loss. I have witnessed the impact of loss and trauma on our lives and believe trauma recovery is integral for better emotional, physical and relationship health.
