There is a quote from Alice in Wonderland that says...” When you can’t look on the bright side, I will sit with you in the dark. Kris welcomes you to the therapeutic approach in which when you struggle to see the bright side, I will guide you to find the light. I will sit with you through the dark times but also guide you back when you are ready. I will be that shoulder to cry on and those ears ready to listen when you want help & change. I will be these for you because others have been for me.
I have been in the counseling field since 2005 and am passionate about helping both children and adults who struggle with mental health issues.
I share a commitment to providing compassionate, client-centered care and these values are my central approach. I believe that therapy should meet individuals where they are, offering a safe and supportive environment where clients can take the lead in their journey toward personal growth.
