Getting to know Kristina Thornton

Hi there, I'm Kristina! My name is Kristina Thornton. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. I specialize in working with adults and older adults. My approach I am knowledgeable and experienced in end-of-life and grief counseling, as well as general counseling for coping with various stressors and challenges at all stages of life. I am also trained in Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for the treatment of anxiety and depression. My focus I typically work with adults who are experiencing difficulty coping with life circumstances that are negatively impacting their health and well-being. I am passionate about working with the older adult population. My communication style I believe in the importance of meeting the client where they are in their journey to better understand their strengths, limitations, and goals. I prioritize maintaining a calm and accepting environment where clients can talk openly and honestly without fear or judgment. I utilize an empathetic approach while also remaining constructive in motivating clients toward their life’s goals.
