***On maternity leave April 2022- August 2022. Email kristyn@krinchiusio.com to schedule for August*** I am a LICSW and a Certified Yoga Instructor. I specialize in treating all types of anxiety. I believe that the most important part of therapy is the client's relationship with the therapist. I use a combination of different treatment methods including cognitive behavioral therapy and exposure response prevention. When appropriate, I incorporate alternative therapies such as meditation, mindfulness, and yoga. I believe that a holistic approach to treatment brings the most success.

***Offering Substance Use and Mental Health Interventions***My ideal client is “stuck” emotionally and struggling to align themselves with their values and hopes for the future. This client may use drugs and alcohol to cope with anxiety and depression and/or a history of trauma. I am well trained in all areas of addiction treatment and can offer medication management by a prescribing nurse when necessary. Post-traumatic stress disorder is an issue for many of my clients, and I specialize in processing trauma in a safe environment, having earned a Certificate in Trauma from JRI’s Trauma Center in Boston.

As a therapist, I come from a place of compassion and empathy. Together with my clients, we identify what is getting in the way of achieving a healthy, happy lifestyle and what changes could be made in order to achieve it. Clients will adopt new coping skills based on their own beliefs and values in order to improve overall functioning and quality of life.

I work with the belief that the therapist and client, together, engage in a conversation to develop an awareness of the patterns of thinking, imagining, and responding. Understanding, of how language helps and hinders our relationships with others, as well as ourselves, can lead to the development of new patterns of communication and intimacy. The approach allows for cognitive and behavioral interventions specific to the clients needs.

“I need to see a counselor" is now becoming "I'm going to see a counselor" and sorting through profile after profile for that 'perfect' therapist may feel exciting/overwhelming/confusing/(insert feeling here). You may know the issue(s) you need to address or maybe you're realizing that whatever you've been doing hasn't been getting you to where you want to be in life. Regardless of your motivation to start therapy I am committed to providing a safe, positive, and non-judgmental space to assist you in reaching your goals.

With over 15 years of experience in the field of counseling and social work, I have worked with children and families of all ages. I currently specialize in helping women experiencing various issues including but not limited to relationship conflict, motherhood, postpartum depression, and fertility difficulties. I enjoy helping my clients with various mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders and trauma.

At this time I am offering both phone/video (Teletherapy) sessions!! I am a licensed mental health counselor with a specialization in holistic treatment. I also employ and eclectic approach to the treatment of Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Adjustment Disorders, and Bereavement. My primary focus is on creating a safe and therapeutic environment for clients to use for the purpose of building upon strengths and implementing positive change in their lives.

I am a clinician with over 20 years of experience helping people reach their personal goals and maximum potential. My proven therapeutic holistic approach, begins with establishing an empathic understanding of you as a person, teaching you to be more aware as you move through life, while you also learn to change the ineffective thoughts and behaviors that are keeping you from the life or results you want. I have worked successfully with individuals, couples and families with depression, anxiety, trauma, serious illness, suicidal ideation and self harming behaviors. If you've been disappointed with therapy in the past give me a try.

My therapeutic style integrates approaches from several schools of thought. However, I tend to favor the client centered and relational approaches to therapy. I help my patients understand how their past and unconscious experiences shape who they are. This integrative style helps patients to effectively link their past, present, and future. I also value the healing power of relationships, which includes the relationship between patient and therapist. I am committed to a collaborative approach to therapy and I value the input of my patients about what they want out of treatment.
