Hi there, I'm Kristie!
I bring experience providing individual, group, and family therapy in a child psychiatric facility. We can learn and embark on our therapeutic journeys together. I'm open to constructive feedback to become a better therapist as we work together.
My focus
I work with adolescent girls experiencing anxiety, depression, and thoughts of self-harm. We often work together on increasing self-esteem, improving communication skills, and practicing emotional regulation. I have worked mostly with children and adolescents, but have learned to work with parents and families as a complete unit as well.
My approach
I tailor our approach to treatment beginning where you are. I am most skilled in using DBT to help practice mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotional regulation skills. I'm continuing to educate myself on different approaches, so we can explore different types of skills as we continue to work together.
