Your story is yours. Having a safe space to express your experiences can lead to accepting (only what is needed) and changing (only what is needed).
Hi, I'm Krista, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been providing psychotherapy since 2015. Clients who have benefited from our work together include, Individuals experiencing life adjustments or acute life stressors that are causing symptoms of anxiety and depression, those diagnosed with anxiety or mood disorders, those uncovering and healing from attachment wounds, and those wanting to connect more with themselves, thoughts, feeling, sensations, and behaviors to improve the quality of their life. My approach is always person centered and relational, with a focus on trust and safety in the therapy space. I am able to draw upon many modalities/approaches based on your goals and preferred therapy style. Examples: Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), as well as other trauma informed and family systems approaches. I'd be honored to be a part of your journey of living a life that honors yourself and what you value.
