About me

This is how it all started…

Hi, I’m Kim Milton. With over 9 years of experience as a mental health and addiction therapist, I’ve dedicated my career to helping others. I’m the proud owner of Connect Clinical Group, PLLC, a thriving online counseling practice serving clients in Illinois and Florida. As a mom to one wonderful child and two energetic huskies, I understand how hectic life can be. Welcome to Life Simplified, where I share practical tools and resources to help make everyday life a little easier. (You can read my professional bio here.)

Welcome to Life Simplified.! I’ve always had a knack for curating lists of resources, tips, and ways to ease everyday hassles. Whether it’s empowering individuals to set boundaries or simplifying processes, I am driven to find the simplest solutions. After years of wanting to share these tools, I’ve created Life Simplified. This is your go-to place for practical tools, resources, and recommendations to make life easier and less stressful, especially for those with ADHD, perfectionism, or anyone who feels overwhelmed.
