Get to know Kim!

Kim first and foremost believes in patient-centered care, individualized treatment, and space for deep listening. Kim received her Masters of Acupuncture from the Maryland University of Integrated Health (MUIH) in 2006. She compliments her acupuncture training with the use of electro-acupuncture, Tui Na, nutritional therapy, as well as facial rejuvenation acupuncture. Kim is also certified in the safe application of Gua Sha and cupping, trained directly with Dr. Ayra Neilsen, considered the Western authority on the traditional East Asian technique. 

Kim enjoys treating all types of conditions including women's health, pre and post pregnancy, musculoskeletal pain, anxiety and depression, gastrointestinal issues, stress and  trauma-related symptomatology, as well as neurological symptoms including headaches/migraines, PTSD, Bell’s palsy, and trigeminal neuralgia presentations. She has a special place in her heart in supporting those who are surviving, thriving, and fighting a cancer diagnosis and for those who are closely affected by a cancer journey.  She is especially interested in emotional health and its intersection with physical well-being. It is imperative for patients to feel safe, seen, and respected during times when struggling with health conditions.   

Kim loves to be outdoors, enjoys her personal time with yoga and meditation practices, explores movement through dance, and music. Kim is currently pursuing intensive training in the style of Instinctive Meditation, with master teachers Dr. Lorin Roche and Camille Maurine.
