Getting to know Dr. Cristina Crego

Is managing stress, anxiety, or trauma overwhelming and impacting your quality of life? Do you feel physically and emotionally drained and unable to manage daily tasks? Do you struggle to relax? You deserve to feel happy, capable, and whole again! Together, we will identify your inner strengths to overcome any emotional and mental health challenges you are experiencing. I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Kentucky and have over 12 years of experience helping clients who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck, and struggling to manage the stress and anxiety present in their careers and lives. Together, we will help you feel carefree and fulfilled with your life.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use research backed, individualized, collaborative, and client-centered approaches to help individuals in early to middle adulthood. I work to help my clients greet the day feeling positive, rested, calm, confident that they’ll be successful in facing all of life's challenges, and ending the day feeling like the best version of themselves.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

With all clients, I begin by conducting an extensive initial interview in the first session to better understand their symptoms, concerns, goals, and strengths. Following this initial interview, I provide clients with research-backed treatment approach options best suited to their strengths, symptoms, and concerns. Together we decide on the best choice and begin working to improve your ability to cope with stressors in ways that will enhance your daily life and increase self-awareness. When you’re ready to leave the anxiety and stress behind and learn to live life instead of just survive, I’m here and ready to help you.
