Kristi is very tentative to her patients and gives some of the best advice in each situation that maybe challenging. when I need to talk to her, she is quick to respond, and is always there checking in on me. Kristi helps support me and provides constructive feedback when situations are not in my favor and helps me work through so many feelings.

She’s easy to talk with and has a calm, receptive vibe. I don’t feel that distancing “wall of professionalism” that I’ve experienced with therapists in the past. I don’t feel analyzed or judged, but listened to.
