Have you been searching for a compassionate, supportive space to explore deeply personal challenges such as trauma, anxiety, relationship concerns, or intimacy-related struggles? Hi, I’m Kristin, and I’m glad you’re here. I work best with clients who are curious about themselves and eager to deepen self-awareness by exploring their thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and past experiences. I aim to provide a nurturing, empathetic environment where vulnerability is welcomed and growth feels possible.
I see clients ages 3 to 65 and tailor therapy to each individual through a strengths-based, eclectic approach. I integrate directive and nondirective play therapy, EMDR, sand tray therapy, and expressive arts modalities to support healing that extends beyond traditional talk therapy. Creativity can offer powerful pathways to insight, especially when words alone feel limiting. I also provide couples and marriage therapy, focusing on rebuilding trust, strengthening connection, and fostering mutual understanding.
Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, and navigating them alone can be difficult. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, regain a sense of agency, and move forward in ways that feel authentic and meaningful. Whether through creativity, reflection, or collaborative exploration, you deserve support on your journey toward healing and empowerment.
