Getting to know Kirsten Banach
Hi there, I'm Kirsten!
Do you miss being in control of your emotions? Do you struggle with racing thoughts, a lack of motivation, or low self-confidence? Ready to make yourself a priority again? I am here to help! As a Licensed therapist (LPC) certified in dialectical behavior therapy (C-DBT) and specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma, I can help you get back into the driver's seat of your emotional roller coaster called life.
In addition, with my knowledge and experience of using the trauma recovery and empowerment model (TREM), I will be able to help you work through past experiences that are still a struggle today. I want to provide a safe space for you to be your most authentic self. Life can be hard, but you don't have to go through it alone.
I love mixing different types of therapy tools including mindfulness, psychoeducation, journaling techniques and much more! Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, self-confidence or life in general I will be able to provide evidence-based techniques for you to become the best version of yourself.
What should a new client know about working with you?
After our first session, we will be able to set both short-term and long-term goals specific to your wants and needs. We will then work together on implementing different counseling skills and techniques specific to those goals. From there we will start building your mental health coping toolbox so you can start building to be your best self.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
