Kristy is a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (#127538) under the supervision of Catherine Wohlwend. Kristy sees individuals, couples and teens in our practice.

Kristy specializes in grief, anxiety and supporting those who are looking to understand themselves and their relationship with themselves more deeply. Notably, she has spent time working in a hospice setting as a therapist.

She has a special interest in supporting couples through grief, including couples navigating infertility grief as well as infant loss.

The relationship with your therapist is one of the most curative factors in therapy (this has been validated in research several times over!) and while we can’t predict how you’ll feel of course, our hunch is that you’ll immediately sense Kristy’s warmth, safety and palpable empathic stance.

Kristy’s fees are sliding scale based and are based upon financial need. You can view her fee schedule here.
