Kristen has so many gifts to help others wherever they are in their life. She is the first therapist to actually SEE and HEAR me, without pathologizing or shaming what I am dealing with. She has the utmost empathy and compassion to meet you where you are and offer HOPE. Hope is all any of of us need in life to move forward wherever you are in your life....she is the first therapist on Grow to give me HOPE I can actually get better and get my life back.

In need of finding relief from the symptoms of trauma and rogue hormones I found Kristen. Her warmth, softness and insight will no doubt help me get through this period in my life. I feel safe, seen and heard with her.
