Kristin Sorensen-Tanenbaum, NP

Family Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
MN
Hi there, I'm Kristin! Life can shift in unexpected ways—college, divorce, an empty nest, menopause, medical illness, caregiving, or simply not feeling like yourself. I help people navigate those changes with curiosity, compassion, and a practical approach to psychiatric care. My focus Feeling overwhelmed by worry, sadness, harsh self-judgment, trouble focusing, or acting before thinking? I work with teens and adults navigating these challenges and life transitions. Together, we’ll work to understand what’s happening and find practical ways to help you feel more steady and confident. My approach Together, we will explore aspects of your life—physical health, relationships, stress, routines, responsibilities,—and how they may be interacting. From there, care might include learning new skills, finding practical ways to handle difficult moments, exploring patterns, building motivation for change, and using medication when it makes sense. My communication style My style is warm, conversational, and curious. I’ll help you look more closely at your emotions, experiences, and patterns without judgment, while gently challenging you to consider where change may be possible. I offer honest feedback and ask thoughtful questions so our conversations feel open, respectful, and centered on you. My journey to mental healthcare I’m a nurse first, and compassion, curiosity, and a genuine interest in people guide how I practice. My years in oncology showed me how closely physical health, emotions, relationships, and life circumstances connect. That whole-person view led me to psychiatry and continues to shape my work today. My goals for you We’ll talk about what you hope will feel different in your life and use that to guide our sessions. Sometimes progress is clearer focus, less worry, stronger relationships, greater confidence, or simply feeling more like yourself. We’ll notice what’s working, where you may feel stuck, and thoughtfully adjust as your needs and goals evolve.
