Meet Kristin
Clinical Social Worker/Owner, LCSW-C
I am a compassionate therapist who can help you to affect positive change in your life. In providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other similar types of therapy you will learn to modify your thoughts and behaviors in ways that will empower you to affect positive change. As the owner of Mindful Living Counseling, my vision is bringing together specialized individual and group therapies with providers of other wellness services that complement mental health treatment. Medication management is an important part of many clients' treatment as are holistic and healthy lifestyle approaches such as massage, acupuncture, yoga, nutrition and financial planning. My intention is to create more of a wellness center than a medical environment promoting prevention along with improvement in overall well-being.

“Kristin has the education, experience, and positive attitude that makes all the difference. She used CBT to help me understand that my anxiety was grounded in automatic negative thoughts that were not based on fact, but just thoughts in my mind. She helped me lessen my compulsion to control outcomes and, through practice, see things more positively.”

“The first time I went to see Kristin I came to her seeking help after I was involved in a car accident with my daughter in the car. I felt scared, sad, and guilty for the misfortune. I didn’t want to drive! I couldn’t sleep and didn’t want to be separated from my child. Through CBT and breathing techniques I was able to learn to control my thoughts and feel better. She also introduced me to self-care which has been a huge help.”

“I was very good at finding reasons why therapy would not work. I was in my late 60’s and am a male. It appeared that I was headed towards a self-fulfilling projection. I was wrong! With a commitment to work and effort and the guidance and direction from Kristin I have arrived at a happier quality of life than I could only dream of before.”
