Kimberly Marks, LMFT

Kimberly Marks describes her work as an honor and brings that sense of reverence to every therapeutic relationship she forms. She notices how lives are shaped by family histories, careers, and relationships, and she helps clients make space to listen to what those influences reveal about identity, values, and purpose.

With a background of more than two decades as a high school educator in the Valley, Kimberly combines lived experience with formal training. She earned a B.A. in History from UC Santa Barbara, a Master of Education from Stanford University, and a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University. She is credentialed as an LMFT - a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - and is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Kimberly provides psychotherapy drawing from multiple modalities, focusing on life transitions, work-related stress, grief and loss - including loss of a spouse or family member - anxiety, depression, and questions of purpose. She enjoys working with parents and families and supports individuals, adolescents, young professionals, couples, and blended families as they navigate communication challenges, separation and divorce, family of origin issues, forgiveness, midlife questions, trauma-related concerns, and other relational or workplace difficulties.

Warm and grounded, Kimberly aims to guide clients through an exploratory journey toward greater clarity and hope. She invites those seeking support to consider how therapy might help them better understand patterns, restore connection, and move toward the life they value.
