“I met with Dr. Kristina Kurtz for the first time today. She immediately put me at ease. She listened to my psychiatric history, my concerns, and gave me a clear understanding of what may be going on with my current medication. What I really appreciated was her conservative approach to making medication changes, what she would suggest, and what I might expect. I feel I am in good hands from a helpful and knowledgeable doctor!”

Getting to know Dr. Kristina Kurtz

Dr. Kristina Kurtz is a board-certified adult psychiatrist practicing at Talkiatry. She graduated from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine in Erie, Pennsylvania and completed a Transitional Internship at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital Oakland in Pontiac, Michigan and Psychiatry Residency training at Henry Ford Health System in Detroit, Michigan. During her residency training, she held multiple professional leadership positions, including ethics committee consultant, associate chief resident, and chief resident. She has experience developing residency curriculum, and teaching psychiatry residents and medical students. Prior to relocating to Colorado Springs, Dr. Kurtz served as the Adult Inpatient Service Chief at Henry Ford Kingswood Hospital. She joined Talkiatry after serving as the Medical Director of Behavioral Health at UCHealth Memorial Hospital as well as Regional Medical Director for Colorado for Lifestance Health. Dr. Kurtz is passionate about providing holistic, evidence-based care to both adults and geriatric patients. She believes in providing a well-rounded approach to care which includes both medication management as well as psychodynamic psychotherapy and supportive therapy for a wide variety of disorders including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, and bipolar disorder. She believes that medication management is most effective when an environment of shared decision-making exists between the prescriber and the patient and tailors her approach to meet each individual patient’s needs.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Dr. Kristina Kurtz practices at Talkiatry, a patient-centered, online psychiatry practice. Talkiatry providers specialize in medication management and treat a wide range of mental health conditions. They take a personalized approach to care, ensuring that treatment is rooted in a strong patient-provider relationship and a responsible, evidence-based approach to prescribing. We know that every mental health journey is unique, and we’re here to make yours feel manageable and supported at every step.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

We start with a comprehensive first visit, where you and your provider will discuss your goals, medical history, and what brings you to treatment. From there, you’ll work with your provider to create a care plan that feels right for you, which may include medication, therapy, or both. If your provider recommends medication, they’ll walk you through your options—our goal is always to help you make informed choices about your care. You’ll meet with your provider regularly for follow-up visits to check in, adjust your care as needed, and make sure you feel supported in your journey.

Dr. Kurtz is a great listener and I felt had a no nonsense attitude. Came away from appointment feeling better and with a "game plan ". She also scheduled follow up visit.

I was extremely pleased! She took her time to go over my meds. She listened to some of my weird situation. She was sweet enough to give her opinion and it actually made a lot of sense. Thank you. Toinette Markowitz
