Hi there, I'm Kristen!
I diagnose, treat, and manage mental health conditions across the lifespan. I develop individualized treatment plans integrating medication management, evidence-based psychotherapy, and holistic care. I'm committed to reducing stigma around mental health, enhancing patient engagement, and advocating for trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care.
My focus
I work with adolescents and adults with a history of trauma, PTSD, mood and anxiety disorders, Bipolar disorder, and ADHD. I also have extensive experience with older adults needing care for dementia.
My approach
I use a holistic, person-centered approach that includes pharmacologic interventions, psychotherapeutic techniques like motivational interviewing and mindfulness, lifestyle and behavioral interventions such as sleep hygiene and nutrition, and complementary therapies like yoga and meditation when appropriate.
