Kimberly Bambarger  M.S., LGPC (she/hers)
Mental Health Counselor

kimberly.bambarger@goucher.edu

Kimberly graduated from Towson University with a Master of Arts in clinical psychology. She completed her clinical training at Goucher college where her passion for working with emerging and young adults flourished. Kimberly has previously worked as a psychiatric rehabilitation therapist helping individuals with a wide range of mental health concerns (anxiety, depression, mood, OCD-related disorders), and with clients of diverse backgrounds in race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and age. She has also worked in clinical research studying both organic and psychogenic movement disorders and has a 200 hour certification in yoga.

When it comes to therapy, she believes that a strong therapeutic relationship is an incredibly useful tool that facilitates growth and healing during the unique challenges that emerge in adulthood. She is passionate about providing a mind-body-brain approach to mental health care while valuing each client’s identity factors, backgrounds, and lived experiences. She acknowledges that therapy can be both a place of discomfort and ease, so she strives to provide a safe space to explore that dichotomy.

Given the uniqueness of each individual who enters therapy, Kimberly’s theoretical approaches are integrative in nature, trauma-informed, and based on the needs of each person. Some approaches/orientations she draws from are humanistic, relational psychodynamic, third wave CBT, DBT, mindfulness, multicultural and radical healing, attachment based, and existentialism. She is dedicated to decolonizing the therapy space, especially for clients who’ve experienced marginalization, by focusing on validating personal experiences and reactions rather than pathologizing them.

Finally, she wants clients to know that therapy is hard work but it’s also deeply relational. She enjoys getting to know other parts of the person in the room, such as one’s unique personality, passions, sense of humor, hobbies, sources of joy, and deep values. On her free time, Kimberly enjoys exploring new hiking trails, cooking, playing pool, practicing yoga, and seeing live music or comedy!

Lucy’s clinical interests lie in supporting individuals during emerging adulthood with identity exploration and transition into new life roles.

As a clinician, Lucy combines both pragmatic, solution-oriented work, while considering the equal importance of each student as a unique individual, so as to increase self-awareness and insight and, most importantly, encourage action in pursuit of valued goals. She knows therapy can be challenging, and has a deep appreciation for making sure clients feel comfortable, understood, and valued while investing in their emotional wellbeing.
