Meet Dr. Kimber
Dr. Kimber Del Valle
A graduate of Rosemead School of Psychology at Biola University, Kimber is a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice, specializing in grief work and trauma healing. Primarily a relational therapist, she’s a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, which incorporates a kinesthetic understanding of an individual’s well-being and assists clients in reconnecting with their bodies as a way of processing experiences.
-
Kimber’s clinical work is informed by the understanding that a therapeutic relationship can help restructure one’s internal emotional world and cognitive functioning, which is supported by attachment and neuropsychology research.
Kimber completed her internship and the majority of postdoctoral hours at UCLA’s Counseling and Psychology Services (CAPS) where she worked with both undergraduate and graduate students. She has also worked at the student counseling centers of both USC and Cal State Long Beach.
Kimber shares perspectives on healing mental health challenges and practicing slowing down on her podcast, I Thought I Was Over This. She also publishes a spiritual daily reflections journal and invites readers to pause and ponder in her biweekly newsletter.
Though a country girl at heart, Kimber has spent the last three decades in the Southern California area where she’s cultivated deep friendships, dance moves, and yearly communal camping trips where spirituality is discussed and only the children age year after year. Married with two living children, 20 and 15, her favorite activities include being outside, watching sunsets, and laughing.
Kimber’s memoir, Still: Making a Whole When Parts Go Missing, is available now.
