About

With a compassionate approach that embraces diversity and individuality, Kimberly Ahmadi, MA, LMFT, has been guiding clients towards emotional well-being since 2012. As the Owner and Lead Therapist at Manifest Joy Counseling, Kimberly specializes in working with individuals, couples, and families facing a wide array of challenges, including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, addiction, and relationship issues.

Kimberly's therapeutic philosophy is rooted in person-centered, humanistic, and existential approaches. She firmly believes that each client is the expert in their own life, while her role is to provide expert guidance. This guidance focuses on identifying and amplifying clients' strengths, experiences, and goals to improve overall health, well-being, and peace of mind. Her practice is particularly noted for its welcoming and affirming stance towards the LGBTQ+ community, reflecting her commitment to inclusive and culturally competent care.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, Kimberly brings a systemic perspective to her work, understanding that individual challenges often exist within the context of broader relationship dynamics. Whether working with an individual struggling with personal issues, a couple seeking to revitalize their relationship, or a family navigating complex interpersonal dynamics, Kimberly tailors her approach to meet the unique needs of each client or family system.

Kimberly's professional journey is complemented by her personal experiences and passions. A resident of Tucson since 1997, she has built a life filled with meaningful connections that drive her to excel in her practice. Outside of her professional life, Kimberly finds joy in her family, including her wife and two adult children, as well as in her love for dogs (and sometimes cats). Her hobbies, which include building things and gardening, reflect her belief in the therapeutic value of creativity and nurturing growth.

At Manifest Joy Counseling, Kimberly is dedicated to helping clients develop personalized skills to manage emotional pain and get "back on track." Her ultimate goal is to guide individuals, couples, and families towards their own "Aha! moments," fostering lasting positive change and manifesting joy in their lives.
