If you're currently facing the challenges of new motherhood or seeking to enrich your marital journey, I'm here to provide guidance through these intricate situations. Together, we'll cultivate self-compassion, craft effective strategies to counter negativity, and deepen your sense of fulfillment. Additionally, my focus extends to working with teens and college students, where my approach addresses the unique dynamics of this transformative life stage. I offer support spanning academic pursuits, career exploration, mental well-being, and personal growth.
Hi! I’m Kristina Francia. I am a licensed clinical professional counselor and the owner of Green Root Therapy. I opened my practice in the summer of 2021 with the goal of creating a therapeutic space for my clients to be seen as people and not as numbers. My clinical work focuses on women’s issues, self-esteem and confidence, as well as burn out.
I believe in an integrative and collaborative approach when helping my clients reach their goals. I have a particular passion working with new moms, couples struggling with conflict and communication issues, strenuous transitions, and infidelity, as well as families dealing with adult children struggling with serious mental illness.
