Meet Kristina
A kind place to feel less alone.
Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, navigating a difficult relationship, or simply trying to understand yourself better, therapy offers a space to slow down and feel heard.
I work with teens, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful change through compassionate conversations and practical tools you can use long after each session ends.
Compassionate and nonjudgmental
Collaborative and supportive
Practical tools for real life
You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes it's simply about wanting life to feel lighter, healthier, and more like yourself again.

A Softer Place To Begin
You can begin exactly where you are.
No perfect words needed
It is okay if things feel messy, tender, or hard to explain at first.
Healing isn't a race.
Sessions can move gently, with room for emotion, quiet, questions, and practical next steps.
Every part of your story matters.
Family, culture, language, identity, and daily stress can all be part of the conversation.
Care Areas
Support for what your mind and heart have been carrying.
Therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what's been weighing on you, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Anxiety & Depression
Support for worry, low mood, panic, motivation, emotional overwhelm, and stress that spills into daily life.
Stress & Burnout
Feeling emotionally drained, constantly "on," or overwhelmed by work, caregiving, or daily responsibilities? Therapy can help you regain balance and prevent burnout.
Life Transitions
Whether you're starting over, changing careers, becoming a parent, navigating college, or adjusting to unexpected life changes, therapy can help you find your footing.
Relationships
Improve communication, strengthen boundaries, rebuild trust, navigate conflict, and create healthier relationships with partners, family, and yourself.
Teens & Families
Helping teens and families navigate school stress, emotional regulation, friendships, parent-child conflict, and growing together with greater understanding.
Grief & Self-Esteem
A compassionate space to process loss, reconnect with yourself, and rebuild confidence one step at a time.
Cultural Adjustment
Therapy that honors your language, culture, immigration journey, family expectations, and the unique challenges of building a life between different worlds.
What To Expect
A first step that can feel simple.
- Get to know each other. We'll talk about what's bringing you to therapy, answer your questions, and make sure you feel comfortable moving forward.
- Understand your story. Together we'll explore what's been weighing on you, what's helped before, and what you'd like life to feel like instead.
- Grow at your own pace. Therapy isn't about fixing you. It's about building insight, confidence, and practical tools that support lasting change.
There is no pressure to know exactly what to say. We'll figure it out together.
Four Pillars
Compassion meets practical change.
Therapy isn't one-size-fits-all. Every session is shaped around your goals, your personality, and what feels most helpful to you. Together, we'll combine meaningful conversation with practical strategies that support lasting change.
There is no "right" way to do therapy. Some sessions focus on processing emotions, others on building practical skills, and many include both. We decide together what feels most helpful for you.
Understand Yourself / CBT
Learn to recognize thoughts and patterns that may be contributing to anxiety, depression, or self-doubt.
Build Practical Skills / Mindfulness
Develop coping strategies you can use in everyday life to manage stress, regulate emotions, and feel more grounded.
Explore Your Story / Psychodynamic
Gain insight into how past experiences, relationships, and personal values influence the present.
Create Meaningful Change / Solution Focused Therapy
Set goals that matter to you and take realistic, sustainable steps toward the life you want to build.
