Kim Bausback

Kim Bausback, PhD, provides compassionate, client-centered psychotherapy specifically designed to support children, teens, and young adults navigating neurodevelopmental and mental health challenges. Specializing in neurodiversity-affirming care, Dr. Bausback works with individuals managing ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), learning disorders, anxiety, and depression. Her approach focuses on helping clients understand their unique challenges while leveraging their inherent strengths to build effective coping strategies.

Recognizing that a child's success is deeply connected to their support system, Dr. Bausback also offers expertise in working with parents. She provides guidance for families managing behavioral and emotional regulation challenges, helping to navigate school issues, peer relationships, and family conflict. Her practice addresses a wide range of developmental and emotional needs, including self-esteem, life transitions, and sleep or insomnia issues.

Dr. Bausback offers both in-person and telehealth services in San Mateo, CA, making specialized support accessible from home. She is currently accepting new clients, with individual sessions priced at $250. Her practice is built on the belief that by making difficult emotions mentionable, they become more manageable for both children and their caregivers.
