About me

Hey, I’m Kristin, welcome! My work centers on helping people feel safe enough to explore who they are, what they want, and how their past may be shaping their present. I believe healing happens through honest conversation, compassion, and having the space to show up exactly as you are. Together, we’ll untangle what’s been weighing on you, understand your patterns, and build the skills you need to move through life with more confidence, trust, and self-awareness. My goal is for you to feel supported, grounded, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life and relationships. I’m looking forward to meeting you.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we’ll take a real look at what brought you to therapy and where you are in your life right now. We’ll talk about what you’re hoping to understand, change, or grow into as you move forward. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, supported, and confident about letting me be part of your journey. This time is about creating a safe space for you to open up, reflect, and begin the work in a way that feels good for you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths are my compassionate, human approach and my ability to create a space where people feel genuinely seen and supported. I help clients understand the “why” behind their patterns so real change can happen, not just surface-level coping. With more than a decade of experience and a passion for breaking mental health stigma in Hispanic and Latin communities, I meet every client with curiosity, respect, and the belief that growth is always possible.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with clients who are ready to understand themselves on a deeper level. My approach often includes reflecting on your past—especially childhood and early relationship patterns—to see how they’ve shaped the way you think, feel, and connect today. With over a decade of experience supporting children and adults, I’ve developed a strong understanding of the “why” behind our behaviors. If you’re someone who’s open to honest conversation, willing to explore your patterns, and interested in growing into a healthier version of yourself, we’ll work well together. My curiosity helps me ask the right questions and share insights that support real healing and meaningful change.

Kristin is awesome... so down to earth and authentic. She listens and analyzes while taking notes, then shares her thoughts in a very genuine and professional way while keeping it simple and straight forward. Glad I found Kristin as a therapist, as I can see this being a great start to my healing process and coping with my mental state of mind.

Very easy to talk to and asks you questions that make you open your eyes to somethings that you yourself have not noticed.

I'm very sceptic about therapy in general. But I felt super comfortable - enough to be open to continuing therapy.
