Welcome to Better Help! It shows strength and courage to initiate a search for support, and you have taken the brave first step towards making a positive change in your life!
My name is Kim Tarshis, and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 30 years of experience in the development, cohesion, and empowerment of people and communities. I received my master’s degree in social work from Southern Connecticut State University in 1992 and have been working in the social services field ever since! I have spent my career helping clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and care giving issues(including both with parenting and care giving for aging parents). I also have professional experience in remediating child welfare and domestic violence issues and have also dedicated a large portion of my career to working with active duty military members, veterans, and their families.
My counseling style is client-centered and strength-based. I utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy to help recognize and work towards client goals. Together we will identify strategies and tools that you can use to make positive changes in your life. I feel it is a privilege to work with every one of my clients and I strive to create a supportive therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable and understood. As such, I commit to treating each of my clients with respect, compassion and sensitivity.
To facilitate this friendly and supportive environment, I can interact with you in whatever way you are most comfortable, whether that be through video sessions, phone calls, or text messages. The majority of my availability is in the evenings and on weekends but I check messages at least twice during each weekday.
Again, congratulations on taking this big, first step towards achieving your goals. I look forward to supporting you on this journey!

I am so glad I was matched with Kimberly. I have had a few therapists in the past and something was always missing. Therefore, I have up on therapy for a while.
Kimberly is the best therapist I have ever had. She has a heart of gold, is a great listener, caring, very open minded and has helped me navigate through difficulties in life. I have been Kimberly's client over 5 weeks now and I continue to feel better every day. I feel so much better after I speak to her. I feel very lucky to have Kimberly as my therapist. I highly recommend Kimberly.

I have been through 3 or 4 counselors before I landed Kim. So I’ve been on this app for about 4 months now & two of them have been with her. She is amazing. She gives me different points of view on certain situations. Views I’ve never even thought to look at. Her advice is so helpful and I appreciate every once of it that I get. I really feel like she just gets me and understands where I come from. I love her. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! If I could give her 1 million stars I would!

Kimberly Is great. She helps you see things in a different way. She helps you realize your strengths and is very supportive. You can tell she only wants what is best for you. I’ve had therapy a couple times before in my lifetime and each time I stopped seeing my therapist after only a week or two. I have been working with Kimberly for 5 weeks now and I will be continuing with her as long as I need to until I feel better. I highly recommend Kimberly as a therapist! She has already helped me so much. I am excited to see what else her and I will get accomplished.

Kim is great! I’ve only been using Better Help for a few weeks now but I feel that so far, Kim has taken the time to get to know me and my concerns/struggles. She is great at listening, hearing what I am saying and providing advice and assistance without judgement. So far so good!!
