About Kimberly

kshannon.png

I am a Marriage & Family Therapist with 22 years licensed experience.

My undergraduate degree was in Child Development with a specialty in Child Mental Health, a minor in Psychology, and a graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy.

History:

Long before becoming a professional counselor, I was a counselor through my own life experiences. Upon discovering Child Development and Psychology during college studies, I found that my natural strengths led to an actual career. I attended California State University Northridge and completed my Masters Degree at what is now known as Phillips Graduate Institute.

Following an illustrious career with Conejo Counseling Center and the BE FREE substance abuse program, I followed my husband to the Silicon Valley and planted professional roots in Morgan Hill. I am married and have a 15 year old daughter.

I founded and developed the Morgan Hill Community Counseling Center, was a therapist with the Christian Counseling Centers of the Bay Area and a founder of the Community Counseling Center of Morgan Hill.
