Getting to know Kristie Holguin

Hi there, I'm Kristie! Hello, my name is Kristie Holguin, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 25 years of combined experience in mental health and social services. I hold a Master's in Counseling Psychology from National University. I provide teletherapy services focused on compassionate, solution-focused, and trauma-informed care. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and generational trauma work, supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My approach My therapeutic approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, emphasizing the mind-body connection. I use CBT, Mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques, incorporating Compassionate Communication and Motivational Interviewing to help clients gain insight and make meaningful progress. I create a space where clients feel heard, validated, and empowered to navigate life's challenges. My focus I work primarily with adults experiencing life transitions and generational and cultural trauma. I address a wide range of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I also support individuals facing challenges related to autonomy, grief, and self-esteem, especially in first- and second-generation immigrant families. My communication style In sessions, I foster a warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental environment. Clients often describe it as safe and collaborative, allowing open exploration of feelings without pressure. I balance active listening with practical tools clients can use daily to manage life stressors. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist out of a passion for helping people heal from trauma and overcome life's challenges. My own experiences with generational and cultural issues inspired me to support others.
