Kristie Nelson, LCP — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Kristie!

Starting therapy can feel like a big step. Together, we will create a safe and supportive space to explore what is important to you and work toward the changes you want to make.

My focus

I help adults with anxiety, depression, and trauma to cope with painful emotions, find solutions to problems, and build confidence to work toward your goals.

My approach

My approach is to provide nonjudgmental support.

My communication style

Using a calm, compassionate approach, I strive to listen attentively, understand your unique experiences, and provide thoughtful feedback that supports your growth and healing.

My journey to mental healthcare

Becoming a psychologist has been a journey and continues to be a journey as each individual brings unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I am honored to accompany you on your journey to healing and empowerment as you implement coping strategies and build the life you envision.

My goals for you

Together, we will identify meaningful goals, celebrate your progress along the way, and adjust those goals as needed to support your evolving needs and continued journey toward improved well-being.

Our first session

We will identify what brought you to therapy, identify your goals and challenges, and your strengths. We will collaboratively build on your strengths and find practical tools for healing and growth.
