We are accepting new clients. Hi, I'm Kirsten and I have experience with adults and teens impacted by depression and anxiety. I provide support for folks experiencing challenges such as self esteem, identity issues, career challenges, and relationship difficulties. My approach includes strength based, attachment based, and family systems work, as these interventions validate existing strengths while unlearning thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve us. I utilize interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, compassion focused therapy, among others.

My clients are people that struggle with unresolved trauma, family conflict, or relationship issues, particularly within a multicultural or immigrant context. They may be experiencing anxiety, depression, or difficulty managing multiple roles (e.g., as a parent or caregiver). They are dealing with unresolved trauma from their past, which could stem from childhood, family dynamics, or past relationships. They face family conflict, possibly related to generational or cultural differences, where expectations and values clash with their own and struggle with relationship issues, such as difficulties with intimacy and communication.

Therapies that focus on brain change, heal symptoms more rapidly and get to the deepest part of the issue. I work from a positive perspective that is both challenging and supportive simultaneously. Some people come to me to grow in areas of peak performance and others come to break free from the gridlock they experience in their significant relationships. Many people are stuck in a depressive or anxious cycle that doesn't allow them to be authentic in how they engage the world. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and I love it.

A wise mentor once explained to me that emotions were (E)nergy in (Motion). And that was all the aha I needed to start developing a therapeutic practice focused on the movement of stuck trauma, unhelpful thoughts and poor relationships through the brain and body to develop healing or what Dr. Bruce Perry calls rhythm. One approach to developing rhythm is EMDR. It is an approach that moves us through stuck trauma as quickly as possible. EMDR creates rhythm by building confidence, clarity, self-compassion, and healthy connection with the self and others.

Life is unpredictable and can often leave us in a place of vulnerability. Life can get busy changes occur, and our relationships can be affected. Often times we just need someone to talk with for a different perspective or a different way of approaching a life challenge. Often times we just may be unable to articulate what we need as we navigate our feelings and what we want for our own personal goals and outcomes. When we push our needs aside they can resurface in ways that become unmanageable, making it hard to connect with others.

On the surface, you seem to have it all (or mostly) together, but underneath there’s more to the story and it’s hard to describe in words sometimes. You feel alone. You feel like something’s wrong with you. You don’t feel like you really know yourself. You may also find yourself feeling anxious, disconnected from others and yourself, exhausted, becoming angry or overwhelmed easily, on alert or on edge, and/or struggling in relationships.
