Getting to know Kirstie Uranga

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals and families facing the challenges of caregiving, aging, grief and loss, anxiety, and relationship struggles. In our work together, you'll find a compassionate, collaborative space where we tap into your strengths to support healing, ease emotional burdens, and move toward lasting change at a pace that feels right for you. My approach I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and supported. My work is grounded in a person-centered approach, meaning I meet you where you are—with empathy, respect, and unconditional positive regard. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help you explore how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected and work with you to develop practical tools for navigating life’s challenges. I also integrate strength-based and solution-focused approaches, which means we’ll build on what’s already working in your life while identifying new paths forward. Whether you're coping with caregiving stress, navigating grief, or working through anxiety or relationship struggles, my goal is to support your growth using your unique strengths as the foundation for meaningful and lasting change. My focus I work with a diverse range of clients, from young adults to older adults, who are navigating the emotional complexities of life transitions. This may include the loss of a loved one, changes in relationships, career shifts, caregiving responsibilities, or the emotional weight of anticipatory grief. My clients often find themselves feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck as they move through these significant life changes. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can explore these challenges together, helping you make sense of your experience, process difficult emotions, and reconnect with your strengths to move forward with greater clarity and resilience.
