Great to meet you!

Are you looking for a safe space to explore and work on making changes (big or small)? My name is Kristina and I can help you explore and manage your emotions. Collaboratively we will create a treatment plan and use a self-compassionate, empathetic and open approach while utilizing various therapeutic tools to help you meet your goals! I believe in tailoring the therapeutic approaches to each client (YOU) which starts by forming a strong therapeutic relationship. I use compassion-focused, trauma-informed, client-centered, humanistic techniques but do not shy away from utilizing EMDR, cognitive behavioral and dialectic behavior therapy skills when applicable.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I tailor my approach to my clients needs. I use a holistic approach when working with clients and have a tool box full of tools ready to use. My training ranges from CBT, DBT, EMDR, Trauma Focused, Polyvagal Theory to Humanistic interventions and techniques.

What you can expect from our first session

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. We will go at the pace you feel most comfortable with - it is very important to me that you are feeling comfortable and able to connect with me.
