Works Created By:

Kimber Harvey is the author of psychological thrillers and suspense, bringing a dual background in forensic psychology and law enforcement collaboration to her writing. She holds a Master of Science degree in Counseling and is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), having worked extensively in hospitals and clinics with trauma, substance abuse (in the prison system), and with the severely mentally ill.

​

To ensure the procedural authenticity of her novels, she earned a Criminal Justice Counseling Specialist Certificate of Advanced Study and actively collaborates with police such as the DPD SWAT/K-9 unit.

 

In addition, her procedural knowledge is bolstered by real-life experience: at age ten, she assisted police in capturing local thieves, and in her twenties, she interviewed local office workers which assisted the detective in setting a trap that led to the capture of a serial rapist.

 

Her unique blend of clinical insight and procedural knowledge makes her novels, including her debut FILLING IN THE BLANKS, intensely realistic.

​Personally, writing was my first love and continues to be my constant companion.  I wasn't always able to dedicate myself to writing,  although  I managed to publish several articles in a local newspaper, won contests-published short stories,  and wrote, rewrote, and published a family cookbook.  

 

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and a Master of Science degree in Counseling and utilize my clinical expertise to help others. I wrote two non-fiction books to ensure professional access to mental healthcare.

 

Inner Awakenings Navigating the Emotional Black Hole Inside - A Therapeutic Workbook, is a   step-by-step guide designed to help readers  become their own emotional detective--a phrase I developed along with many of the skills and techniques in the book. Readers begin to heal through personal commitment, awareness, understanding, and acceptance.

 

Preparing for the Journey Home was designed for those dealing with illness or  a terminal diagnosis, for caregivers in need of support, or for those who just want to be prepared for the inevitable end that awaits us all.

My next non-fiction work is entitled Breeding Disaster. It is a controversial look into   the causes for the mental health epidemic in America and around the world.

​​​Although I enjoy helping people, my passion is writing fiction --   mostly psychological thrillers, mystery, suspense, and fantasy.   However, I have begun the outline for a children's book entitled Mystical  Butterflies.

 

With my specialized education,  and  years  interviewing   experienced officers and investigators who have generously shared their knowledge I'm able to write the twisted suspense filled novels that we all love to read.

​

My debut novel the psychological thriller, Filling in the Blanks, followed by the sequel Beating the Clock-currently being edited. I have also begun the outline for a children's book, Mystical Butterflies.
