Getting to know Kimberly Curtis

It’s exhausting to have to struggle alone, but I want you to know that you don’t have to do this alone. My name is Dr. Kimberly Curtis Quiñones, and I am a psychiatrist. I completed medical school and adult psychiatry training at the University of Virginia. I have a broad range of knowledge in the areas of medication management, different styles of therapy (mindfulness based, supportive and behavioral activation) and mental health research. After a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, we will work collaboratively on a treatment plan that is tailored to your individual needs. I care for people with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, PTSD/trauma-related, sexual dysfunction, OCD, insomnia and a variety of other mental health issues. Reading this message means that you are motivated to make a change, let’s start working on this change together. Other Specialties: Sexual dysfunction caused by medications, OCD, post-partum/peri-partum mood disorders, insomnia.
