Hi everyone! My name is Kristin (she/her)! As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I love what I do! This includes working with clients to reach their goals, reinforce their strengths and work towards inner healing. I strive to utilize reflective listening, empathetic understanding and compassion with my clients to provide a safe enough environment where they can feel comfortable sharing with me in our therapy sessions. I encompass modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, but work towards an individualized treatment approach as each client is different! My background includes working in outpatient, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and correctional settings with clients who may identify with different multicultural backgrounds. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, relational issues or trauma symptoms. If you or your chosen family are ready to begin therapy, I am here to be a support and guide for you to work towards your growth!
In our first session, you can expect us to build rapport with one another. I would like to get to know you and your experiences (of course whatever you feel safe and comfortable sharing). We will also create a plan for what you would like to work on together during your time at Grow!
Having over 7 years of experience, I feel confident in providing a safe space for my clients, providing active listening and helping you to build connections between your thoughts, feelings and actions as well as ways to work on challenging some of the reasons why you may feel stuck at the moment.
My ideal client is an adult who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, disconnected, or weighed down by past experiences. They may be navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, or patterns that no longer feel helpful. I work especially well with clients who want to better understand themselves, heal from difficult experiences, and develop practical tools for creating meaningful change. My ideal clients are open to a collaborative therapeutic relationship where they can feel heard, understood, and accepted without judgment. Together, we can work toward feeling more confident, emotionally grounded, and connected to yourself and the life you want to create. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you don't have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door.

We work on using skills from CBT to help with identify, challenging and reframing unhelpful patterns of thinking.
We work on past trauma, present disturbances or future based events likely to happen by using bilateral stimulation such as tapping or eye movement to desensitize from the event and install a more positive belief.
We work on past trauma history by using skills to challenge and reframe thinking patterns such as surrounding safety, trust, intimacy, self-esteem and power/control.
We will use eye positioning to process difficult emotions and unresolved traumatic experiences.

Kristin is an incredible therapist who creates a safe, comfortable, and judgment-free space where you can truly be yourself. From our very first session, I felt heard, understood, and respected. Her ability to listen, connect, and help me work through difficult things has made a meaningful difference in my life. I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her again, and I would highly recommend Kristin to anyone looking for a compassionate, understanding, and genuinely caring therapist
