Hi! I am Kristy Labardee, LMFT and my therapy approach offers personalized paths. I use humanistic therapy to foster self-acceptance and overcome challenges. CBT helps manage emotions and behaviors, while EMDR tackles trauma's impact on the present. My approach to therapy offers several paths. In humanistic therapy, I create a space for self-acceptance through empathy and validation, guiding clients to overcome challenges and live fulfilling lives. For those seeking to manage emotions and behaviors, I utilize CBT to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, equipping clients with skills to tackle anxiety, depression, and more.

In the most basic terms, my professional interests are in the areas of health, identity, and personal growth. My approach is integrative and tailored to the client's needs. Therapeutic sessions attend to clients' current distress and foster awareness on how certain behaviors that were once adaptive may no longer be of benefit. The intention is to decrease distress, foster awareness, and encourage personal growth towards more mindful, healthful living.

Have you experienced something traumatic? Are you grieving? Hurting? Is life feeling overwhelming right now? Sometimes life has mountains, and sometimes it has valleys. Sometimes when you are in the valley, it feels like you will never get out. Maybe you or your child are struggling with intense emotions that feel impossible to manage. Maybe you feel that you will never get out of that valley. And it may seem that way! But there is HOPE. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and its role in producing change. And I am absolutely a believer that there is always hope.

If you’ve been through a difficult breakup, feel disconnected from the people around you, or find yourself repeating the same painful patterns in relationships, you’re not alone. These experiences can leave you questioning your worth, your needs, and even your ability to trust yourself. You might feel anxious when someone pulls away or find yourself shutting down to avoid getting hurt. At times, it may feel like no matter how much you give, you still end up feeling unseen, unfulfilled, or questioning your worth.

Hey there, I see you... I know you had to grow up too fast and are now struggling with self-love & setting boundaries.
Even though you’re kind, smart, and motivated your life has been hard. You're scared to be your true self fearing others might not like it and leave. So, you either let others in too soon or push them away. You’re exhausted trying to do all the things because you've subscribed too long to the belief that your productivity determines your worth. You don’t make enough time for fun and have a hard time even naming your hobbies...
not to mention you've felt misunderstood by others for a while and therefore lonely.

What would “I am enough” look like to you? If you imagined a happier, healthier quality of life with less pressure and more control, what would you see? The demands placed upon us can be overwhelming – even crippling – specifically for women. The process of coming into our authentic self can be complex and we can often find ourselves slipping into behaviors that are rooted in what others expect of us. Your authentic self is who you are at your deepest core. It is about being true to ALL of you, by aligning your thoughts, words and behaviors.
