Kristen Folkerts, LMSW

Psychotherapist
117 Dobbin St, Brooklyn, NY
Hi! My name is Kristen! I understand first hand how daunting it can feel to begin therapy, especially when healing seems out of reach. I value the inherent dignity of each human being and do not prescribe to normative expectations around identity, particularly gender and sexuality. I have experience working with both adult and adolescent individuals, specifically targeting the following issues: anxiety, depression, trauma (including physical and sexual abuse), psychosis, grief, relationships, exploring gender & sexual identity, and deconstructing oppressive identities (such as Whiteness). My therapeutic style is informed by a psychodynamic approach and is person-centered, trauma-informed and using each individual’s strengths at the core. I strive to provide each client with “a soft place to land,” where healing is possible with the help of compassion and honesty. I really look forward to getting to know you.
