"The secret of change is to focus all your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new." ---Socrates--- Is your life filled with the happiness that you deserve? Do you feel like you need a little help reaching your potential? Then give me a call and let me walk along side of you while WE figure it out. We will work together to transform your trials into tribulations so that you may live a life that is more satisfying.

Currently accepting new clients! Therapy is not an easy process, and I know that reaching out for help is hard. Look at you - You have already taken the first step! If you struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, or significant life changes- I'd love for you to reach out. My ultimate goal is to make therapy more approachable so that I can help you live the life you want to (and if you don't know what that is-I'll help with that too!). My office is a judgement-free zone. I can help you identify the tools towards your healing journey and encourage you to find your soul and become the best version of yourself.

Therapy sessions with me are trauma-, CBT- and DBT-informed. Sessions can be solution-oriented and/or psychotherapeutic. We can work on specific emotional regulation and/or social skills, process identities, set and plan goals, connect you to resources, and more. We can focus on identity development, transgender journeys, disability as an identity, anxiety and depression, chronic illness, queer/polyamorous relationships, and/or being religious and LGBTQ+. (Please Note: Unfortunately, I cannot accept insurance. Affirming Pathways is out of pocket pay only.)

Life is a series of transitions and changes. Often times it is difficult to navigate through these times with the challenges they bring personally and in our relationships with each other. I bring over 30 years of experience and insights to help you successfully manage and experience your world. I work with individuals, couples and families. When it is appropriate to do so, I prefer to work in a family systems context, giving the greatest potential for success.

No matter how we try to prevent it, life often throws challenges our way. It's okay to acknowledge life's challenges. It's okay to talk to someone about your struggles. Embrace challenge. Embrace change.

Many people struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and trauma. They can't find relief for their symptoms, and every aspect of their life is affected. They want to lead a better life for themselves but do not know how. As a professional clinical counselor, I have helped many people find answers and improve their quality of life. My clients describe me as caring and compassionate but also straightforward and action oriented. I help people find and accentuate their strengths while letting them decide what is best for them. I also work a lot with trauma and am trained in EMDR.

In my work as a clinician, I utilize a creative and strengths based approach in helping clients identify their own path towards a whole versus fragmented sense of self. My goal in therapy is to empower the client to develop the capacity and skills to move past their suffering into a greater sense of well-being, peace and freedom.

Welcome to a space of healing and growth. My name is Kristin Bruce, and with over 17 years of service to the Toledo area, I believe in the power of therapy to navigate the ebbs and flows of life. My practice is grounded in the belief that each individual's journey is unique, and therapy is a collaborative endeavor, whether you're facing personal challenges, relationship issues, or looking to manage life's stressors more effectively.

Life can be challenging! Your pain does not define you or own you. Let me help you to find abilities that will lead to a meaningful and joyful life. Together we will explore your story, at your pace, as I serve as a guide and support on your journey to growth, healing, and wellness. We will honor you as a unique individual with unique needs and create a treatment plan specific to you and what is best for you. As a licensed counselor, I will introduce you to valuable tools and practices that are based on scientific research and proven therapies to directly address the challenges that may have hindered you from living your best life.

I am a Professional Counselor, Family Life Educator, and a Certified Hypnotherapist. My practice is dedicated to offering caring services for individuals and couples of all ages. As a counselor I work from an eclectic theoretical framework, utilizing therapeutic techniques from a variety of evidence based practices in order to help you gain control of your life. In therapy we will work together to develop real, usable skills to help you move through your difficulties.

I am a licensed professional counselor that has been working in behavioral health for over 20 years. I am a lifelong resident of South Jersey and obtained my Bachelors and Masters degrees from La Salle University in Philadelphia.

My ideal client is ready to do the hard work of making real change in their life. Sometimes, people think change has to be big to start therapeutic services; it doesn’t. Sometimes, learning to breathe, decrease anxiety, and be more mindful of your strengths can become a great asset. Therapy doesn’t have to be forever; sometimes, you just need help getting through the now. I help individuals & families dealing with chronic illnesses and end of life. At times like those, crises often happen: medical conflict, spiritual conflict, familial conflict, financial concerns, housing and food insecurity.

I have experience working with all types of anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and complex trauma. My secondary specialties include severe chronic mental illness, relationship problems, recovery from previous domestic violence, LTGBQ+ concerns, self-harm, and developmental or attachment wounds from childhood. I continue to take continuing education classes to improve my knowledge and skills in these areas. I especially enjoy working with clients motivated to improve their lives and willing to take responsibility for their success rather than expecting others to do their work.

Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to read about me and my therapeutic style. I am a warm and compassionate therapist who enjoys working with adults and adolescents coping with issues related to anxiety and depression. I strive to help clients define and understand their obstacles, set goals, and become empowered to make improvements in their lives.
