Getting to know Kristian Bulliner
You are the hero in your story, but even the best heroes need guides to help them on their journeys. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, body image, relationships, stress, or anything in between, you are not alone. I will help you discover and maximize your strengths to support you in your day-to-day life. Becoming the best version of yourself is a process and a journey. If you are not there yet or don't know where to start, that is OK-we are not meant to have all the answers. You have the strength to conquer every obstacle and battle you face; sometimes all we need are the right tools.
Every person is different. We all have unique experiences, stories, outlooks, and beliefs. I am here to help you identify your goals, values, and strengths by assisting you in becoming the best version of yourself. I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationships, spirituality, family conflict, racial identity, life transitions, body image, and more.
I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Denver, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support you effectively.
If you are ready to heal from the inside out, connect with me today! The best time to start is now, and I would love to help you along your journey.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The first appointment will involve a review of personal history, including family dynamics, childhood experiences, relationships, and any significant life events as well as explore the reasons you sought therapy and the specific symptoms and challenges you are facing. Recommendations for care will be provided and together you’ll begin to develop a plan to achieve your goals and achieve symptom relief.
Relief Mental Health is an outpatient provider of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), psychedelic therapy (SPRAVATO® and IV Ketamine), psychiatric medication management, and talk therapy for the treatment of depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder and other mental health diagnoses. While our expertise is broad, there are certain mental health conditions and diagnoses that fall outside our scope of practice. Your initial appointment will be considered an intake appointment and will not guarantee a continued patient-provider relationship.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Patients will be emailed an intake form and new patient paperwork upon booking, which must be completed and submitted at least 24 hours prior to their appointment. If patients do not complete this paperwork by the 24-hour deadline, we will collect a $100 deposit at the time of service and verify benefits after the appointment takes place. This deposit will be applied towards any out-of-pocket costs for services, including copays, coinsurances, deductibles, or the full cash rate if we are out-of-network or unable to verify the patient’s benefits.
Once benefits are verified, any outstanding balance will be charged to the credit card on file and any overpayment can be refunded or applied to future visits. Please note that most providers at Relief Mental Health are in-network with a variety of commercial PPO policies and Medicare. Individual provider profiles list in-network insurance providers but patients are still encouraged to contact their insurance company for specific coverage details. Relief Mental Health providers are out-of-network with commercial HMO policies and Medicaid.
