Personal Note

Hello, welcome to my website. I look forward to getting to know you. In the meantime, here is a little bit about myself...

 

I grew up coming to the Myrtle Beach area throughout the years and working at Wild Water and Wheels (in Surfside) over the summer as a lifeguard. When not visiting MB, I lived in New Jersey. Eventually, my entire family relocated permanently to the Myrtle Beach area. After high school I left to pursue my educational career and clinical training . My clinical and doctoral training journey has relocated me to so many different wonderful places. However, once COVID hit, the borders were closed and we missed seeing the people we loved. Being away from family and friends and so many people so dear to us, my family felt in our hearts it was time to return to a place that has always felt like home to me. 

​

I have founded Dr. Kim Saliba private practice clinic and look forward to getting to know new clients and supporting the community through volunteer opportunities at my church and my son's school.
