Kristal has felt like such a natural match for me from day one. Her ability to roll with my quirks is fantastic.

My words may not adequately to express her skills, both personally and professionally. Kristl has given me accountability without the burdon of guilt, and she makes excellent and productive use of our time. I truly apppreciate her part in my healing and growth.

I appreciate the attention to detail and the ways we are pin pointing reactions and emotions. For years I’ve struggled to understand my mind and we chipping away at trauma triggers and coping mechanisms. Thank you!

Kristl listened, explained and helped me understand myself and what I was doing and how it affected my life, and her methodology and how I could apply its concepts to my own healing.
