Getting to know Kristi Ebsen

I bring a pragmatic and logical approach to therapy, emphasizing balance in personal development. Together, we can work towards fostering qualities such as confidence without arrogance and resilience without inflexibility. My approach is grounded in humility, recognizing the importance of being “salt of the earth” in my practice. My approach I am fully trained in a variety of evidence-based therapies, including CBT, DBT, EMDR, somatic therapies, attachment theory, psychodynamic approaches, and motivational interviewing, ensuring a comprehensive toolbox to support your journey. My focus My style focuses on guiding individuals who are committed to healing themselves from the ground up. I believe trauma is at the root of every difficulty. My communication style I am a straightforward therapist who speaks the truth. Growing up on a farm taught me to be honest from a young age. My humble beginnings in rural Nebraska have shaped my down-to-earth approach. If you want to learn the truth about yourself, you're in the right place, and you might discover it's better than you think. My journey to mental healthcare At 18, I experienced the benefits of psychotherapy and believed, “If I can help someone like my therapist helped me, my life would have meaning.” I went to Hastings College in Nebraska on a basketball scholarship, but after my second year, I wanted a change. I transferred to the University of Northern Colorado and graduated with Honors, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. After college, I joined the Peace Corps and served in the Dominican Republic for over three years. This experience helped me earn a merit scholarship from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, where I got my Masters in Clinical Social Work. I have over 20 years of experience as a clinician, working in different counseling environments with people from various backgrounds and types of trauma.
