A message from Krista
Welcome 😊I am passionate about working with all clients in a unique and individualized approach. My approach is based on current research into human psychology and wellness and takes into account your unique values, beliefs, and strengths. I will work with you to set goals and implement plans to achieve those goals. I can help break down goals into manageable steps so that you experience lasting changes and see growth in the areas that you identify as important to you. I can help you gain insight, learn skills and recognize the skills that you already have to navigate the hurdles that come your way in life. Whether you are looking to gain insight into yourself, navigate a difficult situation or relationship, discuss a past situation or problem solve for the future, my goal is that each client leaves feeling heard, respected, and like they have a realistic plan for moving forward.

What is EMDR Therapy?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a one-on-one evidenced based, interactive therapy designed to help you process and heal from stressful or traumatic experiences. It's a powerful tool that helps clear the emotional “stuckness” left behind by events that overwhelmed your nervous system. Trauma is anything that happened to you that shouldn’t have, like bullying or abuse, or something that should have happened but didn’t, like receiving safety, love, and support during childhood.
We often think of trauma with extreme events like assault or abuse, war, or even natural disasters—these are what we call “Big T” trauma. Many of us have “small t” traumas we experience every day: interpersonal conflict, divorce, cumulative daily stresses, complicated grief, growing up with emotionally unavailable parents. When those "small t" traumas are brushed off as part of life, they leave lasting emotional effects that deserve attention and healing. EMDR may be helpful to address those emotional wounds and their scars, and tackle the root causes so you can begin real healing.
