Dr. Klam has been working in the field of psychology for over a decade. She has worked in a variety of settings including a residential eating disorder treatment center, hospitals, outpatient community clinics, schools, and college counseling centers with individuals across the lifespan.

At Confidential Counseling & Coaching, Dr. Klam focuses on helping clients ages 18 and up who may be feeling “lost” or “stuck”, struggling with phase of life transitions, low or anxious mood, relationship/family distress, body image and/or eating concerns, and stress management. She utilizes evidence-based treatment interventions that are solution-focused in nature to help each person work through their concerns and find effective ways to cope and move forward in a meaningful way.
Treatment Style
