LMFT, 18 years of experience
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. I work with families, couples/throuples, and individuals.
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
My specialty in trauma and I have been trained in a bunch (technical term) of methods over the years especially working at the VA and in corrections

It is extremely helpful to have a therapist who understands autism as well as Kris does. I feel like I walked away from even our first session with something to look into about myself. I really look forward to possible solutions for my issues, thank you for listening to me ramble and engaging. Great listener and I wasn't nervous as I thought I'd be.
