kim southerland, m.a., bio
Kim received her master's degree in educational psychology and completed post-graduate training in psychoeducational assessment. Her early work specialized in language-based learning differences and has since grown to span multiple fields, including psychology, learning theory, education, neuroscience, mindfulness, trauma, consciousness studies, and intuitive development. For more than three decades, she has worked in private practice, hospital settings, schools, and learning centers, developing an approach that blends neuroscience and consciousness — combining evidence-based training with multidimensional perception.
With a deep understanding of energetically sensitive and neurodivergent children, adolescents, and families, Kim brings both professional expertise and genuine compassion to everyone she works with. She helps parents, professionals, and others understand why so many children today experience different forms of attention, learning, and processing — and how to support them.
Kim specializes in supporting neurodivergent families and is devoted to offering greater guidance and information to those who work with our newer generations — so that, together, we can create systems that help each individual bring forth their full and unique potential.
Kim is also the mother of two young adults and maintains a private practice in West Los Angeles, offering private sessions and consulting services both online and in person.
