About Kim
“God ‘worked all things together’ to get me here several years ago. I stayed because his working things together was definitely for my good and part of his calling me according to his purpose. A few years ago, I began to sense God leading a different direction. After a bit of ‘arguing,’ I followed, resulting in the pursuit of a second season of life career in counseling. I was unsure where God would take me, but I am SO grateful and blessed to be back at Christ’s Church in the counseling center. God has blessed me with so many friends who have become family, people who have walked with my family in good times and bad, mentored us, shown us grace, and given us the opportunities to do the same for them. What a blessing to have leadership, eldership, and coworkers, caring for us personally and collectively! God has always had his hand of blessing on this ‘little country church.’ I’m so excited to see where he leads in this season!”
Kim married her husband Jim on May 23, 1993. They have two daughters, Rachel and Rebekah.

Kim’s Counseling Background
Kim Goldin holds a Bachelor’s Degree from Missouri State University and a Master’s Degree in Counseling from John Brown University. Counseling is Kim’s “second act,” following 23 years of ministry experience that prepared her for a natural transition into becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor.

Kim is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Marriage and Family Therapy, Crisis and Trauma Counseling, Addictions Counseling, Group Therapy, Play Therapy, and more. She draws from multiple modalities in her work—most often using a faith-based Internal Family Systems approach with individuals and the Gottman method with couples.
