Hi! I'm Kristen, a licensed clinical social worker with just over a decade of clinical experience. Sessions with me are warm, direct and encouraging. Whether you find yourself struggling with family conflict, social anxiety, low self-esteem, body shame, depression, substance use, career transitions, gender identity, decision making, self-harm, negative self-talk or any other completely normal human experience, I am here to help.
My practice is heavily rooted in mindfulness which allow us to become aware of our thoughts, emotions and physical self in order to live with intention and hop off autopilot. Together we will fill your emotional and psychological tool box so that you can self care-take and act in accordance to your personal value system.
You deserve to live the life you want to be living. Call or email today to set up a free 15-minute consultation or schedule your first appointment. I look forward to working with you real soon!
