Nice to meet you!

Choosing a therapist is hard work and so much of it depends on the client-therapist connection. I like to be transparent with my clients because I believe that their success is far more likely if our personalities are congruent.

My name is Kristin (Kris) and I am a mom of 3 who has found my counseling career later in life after accruing enough maturity to give insight into others' lives. My identity includes words like adoptee, only child, orphan, divorced, empty-nester, New Englander, and self-employed. I have a unique insight into relationships through the combination of graduate school studies and my half of a century of lived experience.

I love working with clients who are feeling disoriented after life changes, particularly those that may have been unexpected. Womens' issues I specialize in include: childbirth trauma, sexual concerns, parent adjustment, grief, menopause, empty nesting, divorce, and relationship challenges.
