My approach is grounded in the belief that each person possesses innate inner resources he/she can use to heal, grow, thrive, and fully connect with their soul to become the whole person that they are meant to be. My service is the work of the soul. My work and approach are characterized by intuition, compassion, optimism and collaborative exploration, and a re...
I'm Kris. I enjoy serving clients ages 14-65. My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that clients have all the wisdom and capacity to heal after traumatic experiences.

I am formally trained in Eye Movement Densensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), DBT, IFS, and Nature-informed therapy (NIT). I received my B.A. in Legal Studies with a cert...

Freedom is a heavy burden. The task of authoring our lives is a serious one, which cannot be meaningfully handed over to anyone else. In keeping with this belief, I work hard to respect the autonomy of the people I see in therapy. Rather than attempt to hand you solutions to problems in your life, I seek to understand with you as fully as possible the past and present factors that affect how you think, feel, and act. Understanding can be transformative. As we shine light on aspects of ourselves ...
