Kim Kriesel

Arizona native Kim Kriesel is passionate about helping those on their journey to and through parenthood. To serve women and families in this capacity, Kim earned her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and has received advanced training in infertility, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, pregnancy loss, trauma, and infant loss.

In her counseling practice, Well Mamas, Kim exudes warmth, deep understanding, unwavering support, and a unique way of bringing understanding, positive perspective, and resolution to situations that can seem unbearably sad.

Although she now has two healthy children, she and her husband struggled with infertility and experienced devastating losses along the way. In overcoming her grief and transitioning to a place of peace and acceptance, her passion now lies in helping women who are experiencing distress related to infertility, pregnancy, new motherhood, and loss.

Additionally, she has served in the community as an Arizona Coordinator for Postpartum International.

She is the director of a non-profit, All the Little Hearts, which provides comfort, emotional support, and resources to mothers who have experienced pregnancy loss. When she is not at work, Kim enjoys spending time with her husband and children, reading, traveling, and taking the occasional trip to the spa.
