“I have been working with Kristen for around two years now and have greatly enjoyed the work we've put in together to help myself. She's funny, kind, and caring. She always takes time to come up with solutions, and provides plenty of resources and methods for self-improvement. She always stays up to date on my progress and we can easily pick up where we left off every time we meet. With her help my life has drastically improved for the better since we began working together.”

What should a new client know about working with you?

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.

I've had a lot of different therapists in my life but none the I felt connected to the way I do with Kristen. She has allowed me to work through everything in my own time while still challenging me to push forward in healing my mental health. She has the ability to know when to keep things light and fun (and hilarious) and when to get serious which is a skill not most people have. I would recommend anyone to see Kristen but especially those who have survived sexual assault, struggle with addiction issues, and any form of self esteem issues. She helped me realize how much I deserve in my life!
