I assist children, teens, young adults, and adults work through tough times and difficult emotions, life’s transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether it’s a child with big feelings and educational barriers, a teen feeling isolated and unsure of themselves, or an adult attempting to navigate anxiety, stress, burnout, or identity shifts - I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore what’s going on and facilitate lasting change.
Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a doctorate degree in Professional Counseling. I have over 7 years of experience and am committed to guide your towards becoming the you that you want to be. My overall goal is to leave this world better than I found it, one individual at a time.
Sometimes life doesn’t feel like something you’re managing—it feels like something you’re reacting to.
Emotions can feel intense or unpredictable. Stress builds quickly. Relationships become harder to navigate. You may find yourself shutting down, lashing out, overthinking, or feeling overwhelmed by things that don’t seem to affect others in the same way.
I’m Kristopher, a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, relationship challenges, family conflict, and emotional regulation difficulties. My work focuses on helping people understand what’s happening beneath their reactions so they can begin to feel more in control of themselves and their relationships.
Many of the people I work with are not “broken”—they’re overwhelmed, under-supported, or carrying emotional patterns that were never given space to be understood or healed.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that’s been practicing in the field of social work for over 25 years.
Educational achievements include obtaining both Bachelor's and Master's of Social Work degrees. I have also acquired a Clinical Social Work Licensure.
When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with family, friends and pets. I also enjoy traveling, dancing and engaging in outdoor activities.
My commitment to you is simple: I will listen carefully, communicate openly, and act with integrity in every interaction. I’ll take the time to understand your unique goals, challenges, and values, and I’ll tailor my approach to meet your needs rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions. You can expect transparency from me at every step. I’ll explain not only what I recommend, but why I recommend it, so you always feel informed and empowered to make decisions.
With over 43 years of experience, I am passionate about helping individuals, adolescents, and couples navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in working with clients facing anxiety, depression, divorce, grief, trauma, school-related concerns, parenting challenges, and relationship issues. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), combined with a truth-filled Christian perspective, fostering strength, resilience, and hope.
I believe in treating every client with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Through a non-judgmental, supportive, and honest approach, I empower individuals to overcome obstacles and work toward a peaceful, meaningful, and purpose-filled life.
I help adults who are overwhelmed by grief, stress, or major life changes find direction and relief again.
Therapy with me is about taking pressure off your shoulders and replacing it with calm, clarity, and the support you deserve.
