Hello. My name is Kristal. I have provided mental health and counseling services to individuals and groups of all ages for 25 years. I was a crisis responder in the public school system and a provider for many clients after traumatic experiences. I invite you to invest in yourself. If you are ready, we can work through your concerns and reach a better view.
Our first session will be light. I hope to begin to get to know you and understand what you hope to get out of our time together.
I do not pretend to be an expert about who my clients are and what is right or wrong for them. I believe in partnering together to reach goals that are meaningful to my clients no matter the age. There are no easy or magical solutions and no one is perfect. However, I promise to bring the best of myself and my 25 years of experience in order to help clients reach a healthier and happier place.
Are you ready to invest in yourself? This is one of the few places where you can focus only on you. This is a safe place with no judgement. If you are ready, we can work through your concerns, set meaningful goals and reach a better view together. If you are a parent looking for services for your child, I will partner with you to provide your child the services needed. You are not alone.
I have used solution focused brief treatment approach over the past 25 years in many settings. This approach allows the client to partner with me in determining their most urgent concerns and developing meaningful goals. This approach also lends itself to tangible and measurable progress. In addition, solution focused brief treatment approach can be used with all ages.
Throughout my 25 year career I have facilitated many grief therapy groups with adults and children. In addition, I also provided individual grief therapy in various settings.
Trauma focused CBT is very unique in its strategies and goals. As a therapist I recommend trauma focused CBT to clients who have experienced trauma and are experiencing symptoms that are hindering their daily functioning.
