Testimonials

“I chose to work with Kristen because she offers innovative methods that are not widely available. I’m so impressed with the elegant simplicity and profound results I get from Brainspotting with Kristen. The changes are surprisingly immediate and continue to last over time. Kristen’s gentle, attuned presence puts me at ease and allows me to sit back, relax and let the process take me to new places. I never would have believed it could be so easy to resolve core issues so efficiently. I highly recommend Kristen to anyone looking to liberate yourself from whatever is holding you back.”

Her loving listening and inquiry made for such an open exploration that I was transported to a place of playful presence and knew it to be my true nature. She skillfully, tenderly created a safe playground where I felt truly met; it left me with specific tools–remembrances in my very cells–that will serve me well. Thank you, Kristen!”

“My past career and family obligations left me with overwhelming feelings of being overwhelmingly overwhelmed!  I quit my job to reduce the stress, but found myself fearing that overwhelmed feeling whenever I was challenged, even by things I wanted to do. Kristen helped me find that voice inside me that says “I can do this.”  Four incredibly liberating words.  She reads my body language so well, and I am learning how to interpret it  myself.  I always leave my sessions with Kristen feeling lighter, released, liberated.  I now believe there is a path to becoming the person I want to be.  I feel a new adventure opening up before me!”

“Kristen is a master of many things.  Her kindness, encouragement, compassionate support, and methodical attention assisted me to resolve old trauma and discover my genius through writing.  I found my voice and developed the confidence to understand and communicate the uniqueness of my work to clients in a meaningful and compelling manner.  As a result, my business grew quickly in the areas of my gifts and talents.  Thank you, Kristen.”
