Hi, my name is Kristin Pruitt, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. My focus is to help you feel empowered and confident to overcome your challenges, as well as gaining tools to best help you manage and thrive in all areas of your life!

Being a young person today is hard! Navigating pressures at home and school while balancing a social life can feel overwhelming at times.

My focus involves supporting and educating young people and their families so they can manage intense feelings and communicate more effectively. We will pay special attention to developing coping and problem-solving skills while learning how thoughts, feelings, and actions are related.
