Kristina Kontras

I specialize in working with people navigating trauma in many forms. I support individuals with relational challenges, complex family dynamics, life transitions, neurodivergence, gender identity exploration and more.

My background holds over a decade of experience and training in a variety of treatment settings - from day treatment programming to a federally qualified healthcare center, and evidenced based protocols (like Trauma Focused CBT and Internal Family Systems). This allows me to provide the flexibility required to navigate the complex and delicate struggles we can face in life, in our closest relationships, and inside ourselves.

Every human deserves a safe space to receive the nurturance, compassion, and challenge required to heal, grow and transform into the version of self that they might envision or hope for. I am glad to offer support to those that seek it, no matter their journey or destination.

My approach to therapy is friendly and straightforward, rooted in the belief that you are the authority in your own life. I'll bring my professional knowledge to support and ease points of pain and start to discover what has not been working for you, or areas where you feel stuck. From there I can draw from interventions that align with your unique needs and presentation, and we can work together on a plan that feels right - in both strategy and pacing.

Whether this is brand-new episode of care for you, or your very first time seeking therapy, I want to find out what is bringing you here at this moment in time, and establish a trajectory for our work together.
