Getting to know Khrystin Ballenger

Starting therapy can be scary and is also a huge step in working toward personal growth. I have spent over a decade helping individuals reach their goals and would love the opportunity to help you do the same. I believe you are an expert in your own life and look forward to collaborating with you to help you achieve your goals. My approach I use a holistic approach using CBT, supportive, and reminiscence therapy techniques to help you reach your goals and improve your life. My focus I greatly enjoy working with adults on decreasing anxiety, depression, and improving self-esteem by providing therapeutic support and intervention. My communication style I provide a calm and soothing environment to explore feelings and work toward goals. My journey to mental healthcare I began my career as a targeted case manager and greatly enjoyed working with underserved populations. This led to me going back to school to complete a master's degree in marriage of family therapy and spend several years working in community mental health. I was drawn to be a provider as a way to help others reach goals and have personal growth. My goals for you I provide collaborative services to assist clients in creating measurable, attainable goals and work to meet those goals in each session through various interventions. My first session with you During our first session, I will ask several questions to get to know you as a person. From there, I like to spend the rest of the first session gathering history, symptoms, and understanding where you would like to go in therapy. Finally, I like to end sessions by discussing future scheduling and plans for future sessions.
