Getting to know Kristen Huntley

Hi there, I'm Kristen! Hi there, I’m Kristen! I want to congratulate you on already taking such a big step and seeking support for yourself through individual therapy. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I strive to use a person-centered, strengths-based approach to help support each of my clients in their goals. You’ve already done step one, let’s take step two together. My approach I like to use a person-centered approach when working with clients. This means focusing on your individual needs, goals, and values in all aspects of care. Each person is treated as an individual, with an emphasis on respecting dignity and encouraging active involvement in decisions of care and goals. I strongly believe in approaching each individual and session through a lens of empathy and understanding. I also believe in the importance of utilizing culturally sensitive and trauma-informed interventions. My focus I have experience working with a wonderful variety of individuals from all walks of life and backgrounds. I am a strong advocate for LGBTQ+ and Gender-Affirming care. My primary focus has been working with those struggling with Anxiety, Depression, OCD, life stressors/transitions, and low self-esteem. My communication style You can expect clear, open, and empathetic communication from me during the session and throughout our time working together. I practice active listening and will be a strong advocate on your behalf. As well as provide you the space to express and process your emotions as an empathetic partner. My journey to mental healthcare My therapy journey began when I realized that in every job I had, my favorite part was the one-on-one connections I fostered with those around me. Whether it was the senior population, Domestic Violence survivors, the LGBT+ community, or the preschool kids I taught, those connections and interactions showed me the importance of holding space and showing up for one another.
