Let's be real

Therapy can feel scary, a bit uncomfortable, and challenging at times. You may notice your body tense at the thought of starting or re-starting therapy, your heart may be racing, and you may even notice thoughts like “Do I really have to share everything?” or “I don’t want to re-tell my story, again!”. I hear you. I see you. I’ve been you.

About

Let's talk therapy

Hey there! I’m Kristal. I’m so glad you stopped by! I’m a Psychotherapist but more specifically a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is on a mission to try to make the world a better place, one conversation at a time. I aim to provide a safe space where we can create a plan that works best for your body, mind, and spirit to address the challenges or stressors in your life. A fundamental part of my practice and approach is trusting my clients. You are the expert in your life, not me. You are the owner of your experiences, thoughts, and emotions; you write your story. My goal is to support and guide you toward exploration and growth, to provide you with the education I have as it relates to my expertise, and to provide you with all the tools you may need to reach your goals. At it’s core, therapy is a conversation, so lets chat.
