Given the ever increasing rate of obesity and its associated physical and mental health consequences, Kim wanted to provide a service that acknowledges the important role that psychology can play in this area.
​
Kim believes in working with clients in a way that takes into account the systems they live and work in. This includes their personal relationships, working and community lives. While it is important to acknowledge and work on what is happening within the persons own psychological processes, it is also fundamental to acknowledge and assess the impacts of these other areas to create long lasting positive change.
On a personal level, Kim has been involved in the fitness industry since 2005. She is currently training to compete in Olympic Weightlifting at the World Masters Games in Auckland this year. She holds 3 State records for her age and weight category, and recently won the 2016 State Masters Championship for her age and weight category. She enjoys living a healthy and active lifestyle and advocates the benefits of this for optimal physical and mental health.
Our mission at Fit Psychology is to provide a supportive environment for people to make positive changes to their health behaviours to enhance their quality of life.
