Kim Trigoso Harvey (she/her/hers) is a Clinical Social Work Associate (CSWA). She holds a Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) from Portland State University, a Master’s from the University of Calgary, and is a Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor II (CADC II). She has 22 years of clinical experience serving the Latinx population, beginning as a drug and alcohol counselor working with justice-involved youth, and continuing with mental health counseling for adults and youth in school and community-based settings.

Her clinical influences include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Structural Family Therapy, and empowerment and ecological theories. She has received training in the Gottman Method Couples Therapy to address stress, conflict, and disconnection in relationships and to help couples build stronger bonds rooted in friendship, respect, affection, and emotional and physical intimacy.

She is originally from Lima, Peru and her native language is Spanish. As someone who is bicultural, she brings a deep appreciation and understanding of the acculturation process and immigration experience. Her bicultural background and training in anthropology help her incorporate a cultural lens into her clinical work.

“My work is grounded in relationships. I believe deeply in the power of human connection and the importance of cultivating caring, loving, and healthy relationships—with ourselves and with others. I believe in our innate resilience to heal from adversity and grow through challenges. In therapy, I focus on identifying the barriers that keep us from reaching our goals and uncovering the inner strengths that can guide us toward becoming the person we aspire to be.”

Kim offers therapy in English and Spanish.
