Hello, I'm Kristine, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). With extensive experience in addressing a wide range of issues, I am here to support you through life's challenges. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, child abuse/neglect, ADHD, behavioral disorders, personality disorders, or adjustment disorders, I am equipped to help you navigate these difficulties. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples, focusing on behavioral issues, family cohesion, crisis and trauma, adjustment, and parenting/co-parenting. My approach to therapy is rooted in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which I find incredibly effective in helping clients understand and change their thought patterns and behaviors. However, I also incorporate mindfulness, expressive arts, and other techniques tailored to meet your unique needs. Creating a safe, non-judgmental space is at the heart of my practice. I am committed to ensuring that you feel validated and comfortable throughout our sessions. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I am here to walk alongside you, providing the support and tools you need to achieve your goals.

I spent several days reading and making careful consideration on the therapist I was going to choose as my first with growtherapy. When I decided on Kristine I didn't realize she would be the perfect fit. We connected with similarities of our past which gave me the confidence that she would fully understand and empathize with the things I need to work through.

She has really helped me talk through my thoughts and feelings about where I am at with my marriage. After years of marriage counciling elsewhere, I have seen patterns repeat themselves time and time again, including those related to my spouses adhd. Now I have become confident in drawing boundaries and knowing what my expectations can be! I no longer believe that I have to do it all and that I can expect more for myself and my kids. She has helped my kids and I navigate this all tremendously.
