About
Kristina is an experienced professional with a background in working directly with children/youth and families in diverse communities. Her childhood and life experiences with trauma are what fueled her passion to walk alongside others through their healing journey. Through a therapeutic alliance, Kristina has been practicing Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with other modalities to assist individuals in coping with the impact of trauma.
Faith has played an impactful role her entire life. Kristina identifies as a Christian and considers herself more spiritual than religious, but she still values traditions. When she isn’t busy with her dream job, you can find her enjoying outdoor activities or reading a book!
