EVERYONE IS A UNIVERSE: DR. KIM HARRIS-KENNEDY PROMOTES MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND LIFELONG LEARNING | EP. 021
Dr. Kim Harris-Kennedy is a Licensed Professional Counselor offering relational development help and support for individuals, couples and families undergoing changes, loss and trauma in life. She currently maintains a private practice in Fredericksburg, Virginia, and offers treatment services in the areas of premarital counseling, divorce prevention, and affair recovery, as well as in the areas of grief, depression, anxiety, developmental trauma, and substance abuse. Dr. Harris-Kennedy is a graduate of Boston, Harvard, and Loyola Universities with more than 30 years in the human service field -- one of those being a second-grade teacher. Over the years, she has worked with a variety of populations including at-risk and gang youth; children and elderly with developmental disabilities; victims and perpetrators of domestic violence; individuals referred by Drug Court for substance abuse treatment; as well as individuals and families of Nar-Anon, all of whom faced their unique challenges by building their sense of resiliency, purpose and hope. Her research interests continue to center on how trauma and substance abuse treatment outcomes are affected by a personโs way of making meaning. She is also in the process of seeking funding for a nonprofit and retreat called โTeddyโs Time,โ in honor of her recently deceased son, Walter โTeddyโ Kincaid.
She is also Joeโs new mother-in-law.

PMA WARRIOR OF THE WEEK
Mother Theresa said, โDo little things with great love,โ and so many people remind Kim about that, including Teddy - Kimโs son, Joe Fitzpatrick - the host of the podcast, and her other children - her eldest daughter Suzanne, Joeโs fiancee, her eldest son Addison, her youngest daughter Hope, her husband Dave Kennedy, the people she has the privilege to work with in her counseling practice, and her teachers. She believes we have so much to learn from everyone who comes into our life.
MINDSET MOMENT
In the words of Kimโs son, Teddy, before he died, โEveryone is a universe.โ
