4 Endorsements

Harry Edwards-Kuehnle

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LISW

Krissy is a personable, friendly practitioner who is a pleasure to work with. She is highly receptive to clients needs. Highly recommend!

Dawn Marie Richard

Counselor, LMHC

Krissy makes sure that her patients are heard and will talk with you and not at you. You will not feel rushed and she genuinely cares. She is great at explaining how you will respond to medication and why it was prescribed.

Randi (Miranda) Tumilty

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LMSW

Krissy is a wonderful practitioner. She is down-to-earth with her patients and treats them as people first. She does everything she can to make sure that her patients are supported and receiving the care they need.

Jennifer Wittman

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, ARNP, PMHNP

I wholeheartedly endorse Krissy as a compassionate and highly skilled mental health professional. Their ability to create a safe, nonjudgmental space allows clients to feel truly heard and understood, which is often the first step toward meaningful change.

I incorporate various therapies into my medication management visits. I typically do not offer just therapy only due to the need for medication providers in this state.
