Hi! I'm Kirsten. I hold a Masters in Social Work with a clinical focus and I am Registered Clinical Social Worker. Additionally, I am just starting the journey of my Doctorate of Social Work, clinical Trauma specialization through Barry University. I take pride and care in my work as I always want to ensure each client's voice is heard in therapy. I have heavily focused my career in trauma-informed practice and believe this is the way to be true and open-hearted with all clients.
I work from a client-centered and relationship building approach. I have extensive experience working with adolescents/ adults with disabilities. I have training in CBT, DBT, EMDR and Gottman Therapy Levels I and II. My specialties focus on treating anxiety, depression, OCD, eating disorders, chronic pain, grief/loss, self-worth and PTSD.
I'm currently accepting all client's into my clinical practice. If you feel that I can help you navigate some of the challenges or changes that you are facing, please do not hesitate to reach out for help.
