About | Mental Health Consultation | Strive Clinical Supervision

Nice to meet you

I'm Looking Forward to Working with You!

I am here to support your professional growth. Professional development is a life-long process. Supervision is only successful if it is done jointly by the supervisor and supervisee together. I chose this work out of a sheer passion and drive to do my part in changing lives and to make a positive lasting impact on the well-being of families. I have always had a desire to help others and be that change agent.

A unique experience

"Ms. Kim was a crucial part of that growth. As my supervisor, she helped me recognize my areas of strength and grow those areas even further. She validated my precarious sense of self worth related to being a clinician while also providing clarity, feedback, and support in areas of improvement to help me learn and grow even further. Her style was direct, candid, and experiential. She never sugar coated it and always provided specific examples to make modalities, techniques, and concepts easier to comprehend. Ms. Kim is well-versed in several different clinical frameworks, therefore many of her approaches stemmed from a variety of viewpoints and perspectives, which speaks even more so to the nature of social work- multidisciplinary, holistic, and culturally sensitive. My overall supervision experience has led me into my current career as a therapist at a residential treatment center, and I believe that having Ms. Kim guide and mold me during that critical time as a blooming social worker has greatly impacted in a positive way".

Wonderful learning experience

"I met with Mrs. Kim weekly for both individual and group supervision. It was a wonderful learning experience in regard to topics of ensuring ethical practices, individual therapeutic services, and family therapeutic services. Both types of supervision further contributed to my professional growth. Mrs. Kim is a reliable supervisor who is willing to be flexible when needed, ensures a safe space for colleagues, as well as encourages opportunities for growth".

She helps unlock your potential

"I met Mrs. Kim a little over 7 years ago. I was a case manager under her supervision, but she saw so much more in me. She patiently provided guided choice about advancing in the mental health arena, imparting wisdom, guidance and laughter along the way. If I had to credit one person with my decision to return to school to obtain my MSW, it would be her. As she reviews your personal goals and vision with you, she is already strategizing. She has listened to my fears of misdiagnosis and has challenged me to face them head on. Because of this I have strengthened my knowledge and confidence. Kim knows the right questions to ask you to help you gain clarity on your client’s strengths, needs and abilities to help you develop a comprehensive treatment plan. She helps unlock your potential. If you are looking for someone to create the bridge between the theory learned during your educational program and the intricate nuisances of micro and macro social work, I highly recommend her".

Consistent source of guidance

"Mrs. Veira was a consistent source of support and guidance, and I knew that I could bring any difficulty I had to supervision and receive highly seasoned, professional guidance that would allow me to navigate difficult matters with greater confidence. Furthermore, Mrs. Veira was instrumental in clarifying ongoing clinical uncertainties due to her extensive knowledge of multiple therapeutic modalities and assessment types. She delivered consistently helpful advice for dealing with important matters such as problems at school, with the law, and with family members so that successful wraparound services could be confidently achieved. Mrs. Veira as my clinical supervisor allowed me to navigate the storm with greater ease and confidence".

Professional Development

Kimberly is THE best. We have done individual supervision for the last couple years. She is so attentive to my professional needs and meeting me where I am with all the issues and topics I have presented throughout our time doing supervision. I was extraordinarily lucky to have found a supervisor like her. Working on an interdisciplinary team has had its twists and turns. She has really validated my experiences in different situations. She has helped to guide me through issues in the most ethical and professional way. We have worked on many topics through the years that have aided in my development as professional. She always checks in to see where I feel I would like to develop as a professional during our meetings. Which I appreciate very much as well. As I got close to completing the requirements for my LCSW application she was already very cognizant of reviewing things I needed to be successful. We have worked on ethical dilemmas, reviewed theories, done case studies, reviewed mock assessments for diagnosis, done other test questions, and discussed as much as possible. Even as I wait for my LCSW application to be reviewed I am still able to schedule support supervision. I like the mutual system to track supervision as well. I just cannot give her enough praise.

The clinical supervisor, Ms. Kim, is detailed and knowledgeable about clinical work. She is the best. This agency aided me through the process of preparing for my clinical exam. I am so glad I chose Strive Clinical Supervision for my clinical supervision. I recommend Strive Clinical Supervision to social workers who need clinical supervision, and you would not regret choosing Strive Clinical Supervision.

Insightful Guidance

Kim was an amazing supervisor!! Of the 4 I used to get my hours, she was the most helpful and attentive. I gained so much insight and guidance for dealing with specific clients, but also advice on career goals. Kim makes herself available and is ready to share all the knowledge she has gained from her various roles in this field. Could not recommend a better supervisor!
