Somatic Calm
Neuroscience-informed psychotherapy and mental health intervention
Anyone can heal.
Welcome, and thank you for visiting.
My name is Kiai Kim (pronounced “key-eye”) and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the State of California. After half a lifetime working in entertainment, design, and publishing, I followed a lifelong interest in psychology and switched careers to clinical counseling and research. Since 2019, I have served adults, children, and families using evidence-based therapies and innovative approaches based on the science of the human body.
There are two services to choose from: psychotherapy and intervention. Therapy may be long-term or short-term, as little as 4 sessions. Interventions are situation-based and do not require health history review.
Psychotherapy
My clients come from a wide range of backgrounds and for different reasons: to have a nonjudgmental soundboard; for treatment of a diagnosis; or for help with personal change. Clinical counseling is a career path of psychotherapy that takes longer to complete than other masters-level programs, which has led me into independent research.
Intervention
An intervention is different from therapy in the dynamics of the treatment relationship. Unlike therapy, interventions are brief and are completed in 1-3 sessions. The somatic quieting intervention guides you through a process of body awareness. See the video below for how an intervention may look, or visit somaticquieting.com/media.
