Hello
I’m Kristy, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am also a certified PCIT International Therapist, and Licensed Exceptional Student Educator with the state of Florida. I have 18 years of experience in the school system working with a variety of ages, and 10 years of experience as a mental health therapist while doing Supervisory work for other therapists. I have worked with childhood behavioral issues, Autism, Anxiety, OCD, Trauma, and Addiction.
​
My therapy approach is “coming home to yourself.” That means being authentic to your true self, valuing your own ideas, and developing trust to allow yourself to love yourself.
​
I believe in compassion, but with boundaries. I believe in focusing on attachment styles and how our past shapes our present selves. I also believe that all are capable of redemption. I have taken courses in Meditation, and believe that nature and art are both very important tools to incorporate into therapy.
​
If your young child has behavioral issues, I can help by utilizing PCIT therapy. I am trained to treat OCD using ERP for all ages. I offer appointments on Saturdays both online and in-person, and support all ages.
​
With me, there's no judgement, just compassion. Because you have held the power all along!
