In addition to all of her work with Olver International, she serves as the Executive Director for William Glasser International. As senior faculty for Glasser, she has taught thousands of people his concepts around the globe.
Kim’s own experiences have helped her better integrate Choice Theory into her own life and have allowed her to develop a deeper sense of empathy for others managing similar challenges. From the early days, as a new graduate and newlywed, and becoming a new parent, dealing with grief and loss, to learning how to care for her own body, Kim has utilized the concepts of Choice Theory personally.
In all that she does, Kim demonstrates openness, unconditional acceptance, and unwavering hope that people can heal from anything they have experienced. She has a strong belief that people are not broken, but simply extremely skilled at adapting to the conditions of their life. Kim is particularly invitational, providing people with the information they need to decide what, if any, changes they want to make in their lives. The choice always belongs to the person Kim is speaking with, based on their assessment of what is best for their life.
Kim has a wide range of experience, working in the fields of community mental health theory, corrections, child welfare, addiction, couples, parenting, and self-discovery.
Kim is an internationally-recognized speaker having worked on six continents and 13 countries addressing schools, counselors, social workers, military veterans, coaches, couples, parents and businesses on her transformational ideas based on Choice Theory® psychology.
Our coaching process is about helping people to stop creating their own misery, while helping them take responsibility for their own happiness and success by putting their time and energy into the things they control, rather than the things they don’t. This means leading people away from blame, anger, and resentment and into introspection, acceptance and proactivity. Our process demolishes the victim mentality and empowers clients to reach their goals, while creating the meaningful relationships in their lives that will support and encourage them along the way.
