Kim Leatherdale

Kim Leatherdale brings a refreshingly direct sensibility to her work as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Red Bank, New Jersey — trained by bestselling author Terrence Real and recognized as one of fewer than 100 therapists worldwide featured on his platform. Her background spans individual counseling, couples and family work, addiction recovery, and coaching, shaped further by speaking engagements with Fortune 500 companies, colleges, and national professional organizations.

Kim works with teenagers, young adults, men, and women navigating relationship struggles, mood and depressive disorders, eating disorders, substance and behavioral addictions — including internet and gaming addiction — as well as burnout and workplace stress. She’s known for skipping the jargon and getting straight to skills people can actually use, and her sessions carry the same humor and warmth that make her talks so well received. She even addresses something many clients quietly wrestle with: scrolling through a hundred messages a day and still feeling like nobody really sees them.

Kim offers online sessions, which means the same practical, relationship-centered counseling is available wherever a client happens to be. Her approach is built on a simple conviction — that the techniques she teaches, genuinely practiced, lead to closer and more rewarding relationships across every area of life.
