Kirsten believes therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, curiosity, and authenticity. She understands that sharing your story can feel vulnerable, and that finding the right therapeutic connection is an important part of the healing process. Rather than relying on a single treatment modality, Kirsten draws from a variety of evidence-based approaches while grounding her work in a social work perspective that recognizes the many systems, relationships, and experiences that shape our lives.
Her goal is to meet clients where they are while creating opportunities for meaningful exploration, insight, and growth. She values workig with clients who are willing to be curious about themselves and engage in the therapeutic process together. Through a strengths-based, compassionate approach, Kirsten helps clients better understand what is getting in the way, build on their existing strengths, and identify a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable.
Kirsten specializes in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the emotional impact of chronic medical conditions. She also has extensive experience supporting individuals through pregnancy, portpartum, motherhood, perimenopause and menopause, parenting challenges, work-life balance, relationship concerns, family of origin issues, self-esteem, stress management, and women's health and wellness. She is experienced in working with suicidal ideation and self-injurious behaviors and has specialty training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Brainspotting for trauma.
