Hi there, I'm Kristen!

My goal is to create a safe space by meeting you where you are and helping you become the best version of yourself. I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, relationships, depression, and family struggles.

My focus

I specialize in supporting young adults between 20-35 navigating life transitions that trigger worry, anxiety, depression, and other uncomfortable experiences. I help you develop a plan for managing these changes while building coping skills to handle the challenges you're facing.

My approach

In therapy, my approaches vary based on clients' needs and goals. I am non-judgmental and empathetic, understanding that there is not a "one size fits all" approach that works best. Depending on clients' needs, I incorporate elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Strength-Based, Supportive, and Person-Centered therapy.
