Kim Ray , MD, LCSW-C, LICSW

Kim Ray is a licensed clinical social worker who combines clinical training with a compassionate, strengths-based approach to support people through difficult transitions and histories of trauma. She holds MD, LCSW-C, and LICSW credentials; the MD denotes a medical degree and the LCSW-C and LICSW are clinical social work licenses. She also completed a Master of Social Work and a post-graduate certification in child and adolescent psychotherapy, and she works with a broad range of concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, grief, parenting, relationships, addictions, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice reflects particular experience supporting survivors of human sex trafficking and others coping with complex trauma. She has worked with adults, couples, children, and adolescents, and integrates a mix of therapeutic approaches - including solution-focused work, person-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and psychodynamic perspectives - to meet each person where they are. Kim emphasizes empowerment, helping people regain a sense of control and develop practical coping skills while exploring underlying patterns that affect relationships and daily life.

In sessions she aims to be honest, genuine, and non-judgmental, offering thoughtful, interactive care that draws on both professional training and lived experience. She describes herself as competent, caring, and compassionate, and she brings a collaborative stance to therapy so clients can learn more about themselves and how they interact with the world. Outside of clinical work she spends time with family and friends, enjoys dancing, and stays active as a karate mom.
