Hi there, I'm Kristen!
I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with 20 years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults. I specialize in helping clients navigate trauma, stress, and life transitions through compassionate, trauma-informed therapy. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered.
My focus
I enjoy supporting individuals who are open to the process of growth and healing, even if they are not sure where to start. We work to build insight, develop practical skills, and create meaningful change that supports long-term emotional well-being. Therapy provides a space to process life stressors, relationship challenges, and past traumas.
My approach
A key part of my work is helping clients build skills, confidence, and resilience. We focus on identifying triggers, understanding emotional responses, and developing healthier ways to manage stress, frustration, and overwhelming feelings. I work at a pace that feels comfortable for each client, recognizing that trust is essential for progress.
