Hey. I’m Kimberly and I joined A New Day Pediatric Psychology on November 5, 2018. I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas and am happily married with 5 children. 

I have been practicing as an Occupational Therapy Assistant for 15 years and recently found my niche and passion for children approximately 10 years ago while working in a pediatric home healthcare setting.
