Gottman Referral Network

About

We each have experiences that shape the way we view ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. I will help you reconnect with yourself and build genuine and thriving relationships. I am a Clinical Social Worker with more than twelve years of experience supporting individuals (18+), and couples in overcoming anxiety/depression, relationship challenges, imposter syndrome/ self-esteem challenges, life transitions, and chronic stress. When working with couples, Kristen specializes in working through infidelity, navigating partnerships experiencing narcissistic tendencies, as well as communication challenges. Together we will explore opportunities for self-acceptance, skill building, and understanding the mind-body connection to free yourself from the patterns and limitations imposed on you by your past.

Relationships are hard work! Couples Therapy can be a useful tool for relationships of all stages. Whether newly-dating or in a long term marriage, navigating a betrayal or separation, struggling with communication or intimacy, or simply navigating life's demands, it is common for all types of couples to experience hardships and conflict that impact the relationship. Couples therapy invites each partner to take a deep dive inward & commit to doing the work on yourself that will in turn foster the meaningful and healthy partnership you are seeking. Many couples want to succeed but don't know where to start. Within weeks, I will help you gain tools to create the thriving connection you want + deserve.
