(she/they)
I have specialties in trauma, grief, and loss as my primary focus. In order to get this training, I’ve worked with programs in hospitals, with parole, and on the VA campus, as well as within LGBTQ+ community and programs focused on BIPOC clients. I've usually worked within a few areas at a time to make sure I can reach and create the best practice possible with all my potential/current clients. I also really enjoy/am familiar with working with anxiety disorders (PTSD, CPTSD, OCD, GAD), depressive disorders, Bipolar disorder, personality disorders, family systems, intergenerational trauma, and... really whatever you need to process, including life events like break ups or respectful divorces.
Generally first session is getting to know each other and see if it feels like a fit
My biggest strengths according to my clients are my “realness”, along with being nonjudgmental, smart, kind, and occasionally funny. I asked them.
Trauma, cptsd/ptsd, anxiety disorders, family systems issues , life change, neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, generational trauma

I fit the treatment to the client so I’m able to use various modalities during treatment. Since I specialize in trauma there are various treatment methods necessary, as well as the special needs/personality of the client need to be considered

I found Kris in my search for a therapist sensitive to the topic of family estrangement and am grateful I did. Coming off the heels of our initial session, I’m looking forward to working together.

Kris is so understanding. She seems very intelligent and wise. I like her open mindedness.
