As your therapist / coach, my mission is to guide you towards aligning with your personal goals that empower you to live from a place of authenticity, all leading to deep healing and inner peace.
As host of the Every Day is a New Day Show and Lets Talk Fabulous Shows, my mission is to provide a supportive space for guests to share their positive messages and for viewers to receive hope and inspiration to be more of who they are on their journey forward.
Kim O'Neill Therapy & Coaching & the Every Day is a New Day Show are about moving forward; supporting you in seeing yourself more clearly (because you're amazing!); inspiring you to know you CAN do anything your heart desires; providing you hope, healing and insights that support you in releasing whatever may be weighing you down so you can see there truly are infinite possibilities for your life.
I'm here to support you in developing more courage, confidence and clarity as you say a massive "YES!" to the YOU that is waiting to emerge. I want you to know it's safe to be you; that anything you have your heart set on, is always possible; to help you develop a positive, kinder mindset; make sense of any chaos in your head so you can stand more confidently in your power; learn to trust what your emotions and intuition are telling you ... and anything else you desire for yourself.
You are amazing. There is always hope.
Every day is always a new day.
Oh where do I begin...
Ever since I was a kid, I have felt purpose-driven and career-oriented. I wanted to be an actress, a singer, a private investigator, make handmade books, and even be a dental receptionist (yes, for real). In my teen years, I made a long list of 20+ professions I'd love to have, and eventually realized I'd really love to help people with their *problems* in some way.
I finally entered into the profession of Marriage & Family Therapy (MFT) in my mid-40s in 2024; however at this stage of my life, I bring with me a lot of additional experience behind it all. Since 2013 I’ve been able to hone my coaching skills through interview coaching, as well as personal coaching – helping people reclaim their authentic self-confidence for interviews and everyday life. Over time my coaching clients often described our sessions as “therapeutic,” and this is why I now say that my coaching has a tendency to be therapeutic and my therapy sessions often have a coach approach.
I'm also often seen as an optimist, upbeat and bubbly - and that is the real me.
You know what's also real?
I used to struggle with negative self talk in such a big way, I was suicidal - more than once (oh how that has NOT been easy to tell people, but it gets easier each time.)
I had an absent father which absolutely factored into my relationships with men, as well as my own self worth (little did I know) ... but we were able to repair that relationship after all
I got married and divorced in my early 20s - oh the hell ... and the healing
I put myself through college and am absolutely a strong, independent woman ... who now knows how to ask for help
I've struggled with learning to love my body my whole life ... and I'm finally getting there
It was in 2008 when my world shattered more than it ever had up to that point, that I was grasping for straws - for something or someone to come and save me. With hindsight being 20:20, I eventually came to realize that was part of my "awakening." When you don't have a stable inner foundation, anything can take you down - leaving you primed to rediscover and step into who you truly are, more than you may have ever before. To read more about that experience, read my chapter in the Positive Minded People Book.
Now your world does not need to be crumbling in order for us to work together, however, as we do, you'll develop more of your own stable inner foundation. You'll be able to see and think more clearly. You'll be able to heal and release situations that have been weighing you down. You'll naturally become more confident and courageous to allow yourself to take a more valued role in your own life ... and I'll teach you how to work with the Law of Attraction as you'll be ready for abundance to flow in more easily (IF you're interested in that).
Wherever you are today (mentally and emotionally) does not have to be where you are tomorrow ... and yet, where you are now is always going to be the best place to start if you desire to move forward.
Whatever is going on in your world right now, I applaud you for being brave enough to take action and consider the possibility that there is still SO MUCH MORE to come for you. You don't have to settle for a life or career you don't love. Your voice does matter and your healthy, confident self-expression is a gift to the world. Take time to care for you, and know that YOU are amazing. I will always believe this about you, even if you don't - yet. I look forward to walking side-by-side with you on your journey forward. Never give up. Keep going. It can get better. ;-)
