Getting to know Kjirsten Santaferraro

Greetings! I'm a caring, warm, and strengths-based therapist who is rooting for your goals right alongside you. I don't shy from asking the hard questions when needed, but also believe in cultivating a trusting and supportive environment to help ensure we are navigating obstacles in a way that. My approach My therapeutic orientation involves key components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (finding the connections between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (think mindfulness, self-regulation), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (focusing on the power of the here and now). My focus I specialize in working with adults (18-90+) who are navigating anxiety, depression, or the stress associated with life transitions. If you have had enough of where you're at, looking for a supportive guide to help get you where you want to be, and are willing to do the work, we will likely be a great fit!. My communication style My communication style is warm, sincere, non-judgmental, and authentic. My journey to mental healthcare From a young age, I've been fascinated with human behavior and why people do the things they do. I think that therapy can be the great equalizer, where no matter your position in life, you can come and be vulnerable and feel better and stronger on the other side. My goals for you We will work together to identify your pain points, identify barriers to success in those areas, and develop a plan that makes sense to you, while rooted in evidence-based therapeutic practice. My first session with you During our first session together, we will review a bit of your background and what has led you to seek counseling at this time. We will explore your pain points and collaboratively develop a plan for how to improve your quality of life through the therapeutic process.
