In a world that throws all sorts of demands, challenges, and difficulties at us, we might often feel like we are being pulled in many different directions. These demands may come from others, society, or even yourself, and the discomfort may eventually result in things like depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. Figuring out how to move forward can be painful, frightening, and even seem overwhelming, especially if you’re unsure of where to start. I’d like to collaborate with you in envisioning the path you can take through hardships, and how you can achieve your goals.

Therapy can be one of the most rewarding things you can do for yourself. Therapy is a personal journey, and I am honored to be the therapist to help you expand and strengthen your insight and awareness. My goal is to help you understand yourself better, and equip you with skills to actualize your best self. My therapy style is developmental, and supportive, with a strong focus on thinking about our thinking. Together we can explore narratives, with goals of reframing into a healthier, more self-compassionate internal dialogue of self acceptance. My approaches are engaging, workable and direct.

As we go through life, we can experience difficulties and challenges. Reaching out to someone for help can be difficult so I commend you for doing so. As a therapist, I am here to listen and provide a safe space in which to share those concerns. Every person is unique so I take time to develop a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust while tailoring the therapy to each person. -Kristina Walters, MA, LPC

Are you struggling in the relationships that are most important to you? Distress might look like the same argument with your partner. It may be a constant feeling of tension in a relationship with parent, child, or friend. Perhaps it's the inability to move through your emotions which impacts how you relate to yourself or even God. When emotionally distressed, you rely on ingrained ways of coping. These strategies are not always helpful and may lead to feeling stuck, disconnected, or alone. What you want most is a relationship that thrives. There is hope to be connected, known, and loved in your relationships.

CS Lewis wrote that our passions are sleepy, that we are like little children who are easily pleased with making mud pies in a slum when we have no idea what it means to have a holiday at the sea. There is always more to life than what we can so easily settle for, and in journeying into the deeper parts of our hearts we can better know ourselves, and God, toward healing, and a more abundant life.
