My website
Hello! My name is Kristan and I am glad you're here! At times it can be difficult to determine what we are looking for or what we need, I am an empathetic and receptive therapist who is determined to help you navigate your way through life in a way that works best for you. It is incredibly important to me that my clients seeking therapeutic intervention experience a safe and non-judgemental environment to share, heal, and gain realistic and effective skills to use outside of the office.
I work with children, teens, adults, and couples. As an adult with ADHD, I have special interest and experience working with clients with ADHD, ASD, and trauma. I use a wide range of therapeutic techniques including but not limited to Trauma-informed care, CBT, DBT, IFS, Play Therapy, SFBT, and Attachment-Based approaches.
With over 10 years of experience working within the community in a helping profession using multiple forms of therapeutic approaches, I would be happy to provide you with the support you are looking for and look forward to meeting with you. Online booking is available by clicking the link on my profile!

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation, boundary setting & stress. During our initial sessions, we will get to know each other and explore the presenting issues, and use a collaborative approach in finding the right therapeutic intervention that fits best for the client. The most important component is allowing my clients autonomy over their treatment goals.
