Getting to know Kristen Buchannan

Hello, I'm Kristen. I believe that one of the most important aspects of counseling is relationship building and establishing trust. I like to meet my clients where they are and help them grow from there. Counseling is a safe place to be vulnerable, express feelings of fear or sadness, and plant seeds of hope, develop self-efficacy, and find peace. Counseling can involve a great deal of self-reflection, and I also like to work from a goal- and solution-focused approach. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker Supervisor with a master’s degree from Case Western Reserve University. I have a wide range of experience but am very passionate about children and adolescents, who, of course, need to be treated in the context of their families. I also enjoy conducting behavioral training with parents. I have a special interest in clients with chronic pain and complex medical needs. My work is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, teaching coping strategies and using meditation and mindfulness, though I incorporate play therapy, art therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into my work. If you feel that we might be a good fit, I would love to hear from you. Let's work together to help you find the peace and self-efficacy you deserve.

I was not able to log into our virtual appointment after 30 minutes of attempting I gave up and tried calling customer service that was not open and was directed to call back when open. There was no way to contact therapist either by phone, text, or email to explain the situation. Horrible experience and will ONLY be going through grow therapy for future appointments.
