Getting to know Kristen Demers

Kristy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a master’s degree from The University of Texas at Austin School of Social Work. She is certified in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) and carries a trauma informed approach into her practice. Kristy has worked as an individual and family therapist for the past four years at the Center for Child Protection. Kristy also has her Reiki (energy work) Master certification. It always makes me excited to know someone has reached a point where they are willing (or at least curious) to work toward change and healing. It may be your first time working with a therapist, or perhaps you are continuing a journey already begun. Either way, you are the agent of change, and I will be here to guide and support you along the way. I encourage you to continue reading and determine if my therapeutic approach feels like a good fit for you.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I like to take an individualized and holistic approach to the healing journey. I know there is not one style that fits all, so I like to start where you are and go from there. Feeling safe in our bodies is an important part of the work and I like to incorporate mindfulness techniques including breath work, meditation, and simple yoga poses that help promote release. I bring a down-to-earth and approachable demeanor to sessions and value authentic connection. I am certified in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) and have primarily worked through a trauma-informed lens. Looking at experiences, attachment, learned beliefs and patterns can give us great insight in how to move forward. I also look at strengths and how individuals can work to create or improve support systems.
