I’ve had therapists most of my life and can easily say Kristen was one of the best, she fully understood what I was going through and never made me feel like what I was thinking was weird. It’s the first time I’ve felt fully understood. Thank you!!
Kristen is a gem of a person and absolutely wonderful therapist. She has a deep understanding of many different tools including IFS, somatic work, complex trauma and many more. She demonstrates profound knowledge and expertise. She is an incredible resource in providing compassionate, safe support and healing spaces and I would absolutely recommend her.

She meets you where you’re at and aligns with your goals, working with compassion, understanding, and awareness every step of the way
Kristen's deep attunement, along with her thorough knowledge in her areas of focus, makes her especially effective in trauma work, nervous system regulation, and helping to support and treat OCD. Kristen creates a safe container for clients to move out of survival mode and into true regulation and resilience. Kristen has an incredible ability to bring her depth of sensitivity and intuition to each client she works with that is truly felt. I highly recommend working with her, especially for support around OCD and healing the nervous system.
Kristen brings wisdom and care to her work as a holistic therapist. She partners with clients to process pain and build resilience. With warmth and a deeply compassionate presence, she helps clients feel safe and supported. A remarkable professional.
Kristen is an incredible therapist. She brings both skill and compassion to her work with young adults, especially those with trauma and OCD. Her use of I-CBT and polyvagal-informed therapy helps clients experience real, lasting change. Highly recommend!
