Kristina Shippey

As a therapist, I am passionate about walking alongside folks as they reveal their truths and vulnerabilities to themselves. I believe, and have witnessed that people are capable of long standing change with knowledge, support, and connection, and that therapy is a great place for that. You can learn new ways to manage life stressors, feel safe, gain confidence, and live a more joyful and purposeful life. I use cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and strength-based techniques, while never ignoring the human element and connection where the real change happens.

I have worked with folks experiencing severe anxiety, depression, and mood instability. People also seek therapy to process a trauma, support in making difficult decisions, and a space to explore and grow as individuals. Whether you are new to therapy or seeking it out again, I want to commend you for your bravery in seeking support at this time.

Lasting change does not happen overnight, or in one to two therapy sessions. Research shows the best outcomes are a result of a positive relationship with your therapist, and that is a centerpiece of my work with clients.
