Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Kristin has helped clearly define what is my responsibility and what isn’t. She has helped me gain confidence in past decisions I have made and reconcile current decisions I have to continue to make. Therapy sessions with her are part of my monthly recipe for improvement and growth. I feel like she enjoys problem solving as much as I do and having someone to talk to and bounce ideas off in an unbiased way is wonderful.

I've had a positive experience with Kristin. Scheduling is easy and convenient, and her office space is comfortable and inviting. She is incredibly compassionate and kind—always creating a safe, welcoming space where I feel truly heard and supported. Kristin acknowledges the issues I’m facing without judgment and helps me work through the struggles with practical coping strategies that I can actually use in real life. I’m extremely grateful to have found someone who genuinely cares and empowers me to take steps forward.

Simply put, Kristin is amazing. She has been key to my successful journey the past three years. Kristin, while empathetic and supportive, is also forthright and honest in the steps you need to take to live a healthy life.

I am thankful for the support I've received from Kristin. From my very first session, She created a warm and welcoming environment that allowed me to open up comfortably. Her ability to listen and provide thoughtful insights has been incredibly helpful. I appreciate how she guides me through my thoughts and feelings, helping me gain clarity and perspective. Thank you Kristin, for your support.

Always been great since I met her several years back. Kristen had helped me truly build a better life and mental space for myself. She’s been very flexible with scheduling and making sure I got the mental care I needed.

Kristin was recommended to me by a friend. I needed help in learning how to set boundaries with an adult Narcissistic child, that was making my life very unhappy. Working with her I have been able to get my happiness back and have learned to love life again. She is helping me work a plan with my child that will work for both of us.

I have been seeing Kristin for the past three years. Initially, it was to seek counseling with my (late) husband. However, she had strong instincts and knew my husband was in active addiction and encouraged that couples therapy wouldn’t be in our best interest since he wasn’t honest with himself and his alcoholism. In the end, I have continued to see Kristin independently. We have honest conversations along with me processing the resources I have navigated through the past years. I look forward to my sessions with Kristin and the “ahas” that I discover after our sessions.

She’s the best therapist I have had.
Telehealth
Kristin has helped me tremendously throughout the hardest part of my life. She’s understanding, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I have always felt I have a safe place when speaking to Kristin. She has been my light in a lot of ways when I was in a dark tunnel. I am so appreciative of how much she has helped and been there for me. She makes herself available in a time of need. We have grown to have a mutual respect for one another and I value her opinion in all aspects of my life. I would recommend Kristin to anyone searching for an amazing therapist.

I’ve been seeing Kristin for almost 2 years now and words can’t describe how much she has helped me grow as a human. I came to her very overwhelmed and anxious and she has helped me re-discover my confidence and resiliency. Kristin truly listens to my rambling, helps me sort those thoughts and provides suggestive actions to aid in my betterment as a whole human. I will forever be grateful for her compassionate and constructive guidance.

The best of the best with CADC/Codependency
Kristin is by far the best counselor/therapist I’ve ever had. I have codependency issues and I am a recovering alcoholic. I needed someone who specializes in both areas. My counselor from Powell CDC referred me to Kristin. I am forever grateful that I was referred to Kristin. She is real, up front and HONEST. As an addict, we don’t always like the “tough love” aspect when we are given it but that is what we need. Kristin has helped me uncover some childhood problems that were underlying and I never even knew were of bother to me until recently. I’ve been able to work through all of my issues with her. As far as the two other poor reviews on here- my guess is those two were chemical dependency clients who weren't ready to get sober and face the reality of their own lives. Kristin is phenomenal. I prefer a professional who will keep things real with me instead sugar coating and telling me what I think I want to hear. Thank you Kristin!

Rude, condescending, and manipulative- just the tip of the iceberg. If you're needing real help, look for a different provider.
