Hi, my name is Kristina Vonder Reith and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I excel in working with various cultural, socioeconomic, and religious backgrounds with respect to the unique challenges of assimilation and integration. I take a holistic approach toward the goal of empowerment.
As a therapist, I work to understand the what, with empathy and respect. I work collaboratively, validating and acknowledging the resources available, whether they are within you or in reach. If you are feeling trapped, stuck, helpless/hopeless in your circumstances, I want to help find a way out.
I have been described as direct, compassionate, and empowering. Therapy should be a safe place. This looks like listening, validating, normalizing, and holding space. I approach goals collaboratively, we work to find a path forward with growth and healing. Once the challenge is overcome, symptoms are reduced and the learning curve is met, my role shifts to a supportive, encouraging, and validating space. I want you to live in your truth, have your voice heard, and find peace.
