Update 5/27: openings for couples, families, teens, adults: You’ve had bad experiences with providers. Finding a therapist who can hold the intersecting struggles you, your kiddo, your relationship, or family experiences, can feel overwhelming, if not downright impossible. Underneath the daily search to feel loved, cared for, and met, is the pain of not getting your needs met.

Guided by empathy, compassion, and intuition, I invite clients to utilize art as a means of processing.
Our stories are complex, imperfect, and beautiful. I believe that beneath the surface of all experiences lies the potential for revelation, regeneration, and growth. My approach is integrative and grounded in presence. Cultivating a therapeutic relationship means meeting a person where they are at and addressing their unique story with an open heart. Holistic in nature, I believe mental health is interwoven with physical, spiritual, and ecological health. Orienting from a humanistic, strength-based approach, I am inspired by the repository of medicine found in one’s connection to creativity and the natural world.

Treatment may involve ACT, IFS, art therapy, or neuroscience tools like tDCS, depending on your needs.
You may be facing a change you didn’t choose, like illness, grief, caregiving, chronic pain, or the weight of past trauma. Or you might be navigating an internal shift: anxiety that feels overwhelming, a loss of identity, or old coping strategies no longer working. Many of my clients feel stuck between who they were and who they’re becoming, unsure how to manage the emotional and physical impact of everything shifting around them.

I am a trauma-informed psychotherapist offering depth-oriented therapy that honors each client’s unique healing process. My work is grounded in the belief that meaningful change unfolds when we listen deeply—to the psyche, the body, and the natural world that holds us.
Drawing from Jungian shadow work, Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, and somatic-based approaches, Kristen supports children and adults in gently exploring the parts that seek understanding, integration, and relief. Together, we will cultivate greater self-compassion, emotional resilience, and authentic living.

I encourage creative imagination ( art, movement, visualization) to help transform stuck patterns.
Maybe your life has gotten to a place where you know it needs to change, but you feel stuck and scared. Or perhaps your life just got turned upside down—a loss, a crisis, a sudden wake-up call—and you’re not sure where to turn. Then again, you might be in a place where things are basically okay. But you yearn for a greater sense of purpose and aliveness. Whatever your specific situation, if you’re ready to take the risk of changing your life for the better, then I’m here to support, guide, and collaborate with you in making that happen.

In my practice, healing happens through connection: with yourself, with nature, with horses, and through creative expression like art and journaling.
I work with adult women and girls (ages 10 and up) in a peaceful rural setting where therapy often includes hands-on experiences—like walking with horses or making art—not just talk. These approaches open up new pathways for processing emotions, building confidence, and learning to navigate life with clarity and resilience.

Art Therapy
How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
