I love dogs and all animals. I Appreciate nature and the beauty surrounding us continually.

My passion is working with people and helping them to be the best they can be. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina and a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 24+ years of therapeutic experience. My experience started in Mental Health Clinics, but I have been working in private practice for over 15 years. I help people with a variety of concerns to include stress, anxiety, coping with grief and loss, parenting issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

I'm very experienced, dedicated, flexible in terms of days and hours, and able to be both supportive and appropriately challenging when needed. I especially enjoy working with couples and families as I can "hear" all parties and focus on helping each person speak their truth safely and also to listen. Professionally, I have an LCSW, authored or coauthored 4 books, 3 with HarperCollins and W. W. Norton. I've produced dozens of award-winning videos addressing addiction and relapse prevention widely used in treatment and corrections. I also have raised 3 children and served as both a foster- and adoptive- parent. Above all, I have integrity, a depth of experience, and good humor.

With all the possible stressors in life, it can sometimes be difficult to know what is keeping us from being the best version of ourselves. In my practice, we will identify what is working and explore possible areas for change. No matter your struggles, the goal will be to help you identify and build on your strengths and become the person you aspire to be. My first goal is to create a supportive environment where you can feel heard and understood. We will focus on your unique lived experiences, including how both personal and social factors can influence the ways you live and grow in the world.

Hi, my name is Kristine and I provide individual and couples therapy via telehealth services. I obtained my Marriage and Family Therapy degree in 2016 from Syracuse University. I work from a systemic and trauma informed lens and I am trained in EMDR.

I want clients to know that I’m warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative in my approach. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all style of therapy, so I try to meet each person where they are and adjust based on what they need in the moment.

I use both talk therapy and art therapy, and you don’t need any experience with art for it to be helpful. Sometimes words are enough, and other times it can be easier to express things through creative work, either way is okay.

My style is supportive but also practical. I like helping clients understand what they’re feeling, build coping skills they can actually use day-to-day, and gently work through patterns that feel stuck or overwhelming.

Most importantly, I aim to create a space where you don’t feel judged, rushed, or pressured, just supported at your own pace.

Life is a journey and you will be hard-pressed to find a completely smooth path along the way. The hard truth is that life can be filled with difficulties. However, everyone possesses inner strengths to overcome their barriers. I will assist you in bringing out these strengths and adopting healthy coping mechanisms.
