More about me

Licensing: MSC, LCPC Years in Practice: 20 State: Montana

I have been a therapist for 20 years. I have done extensive work with families in conflict and with victims of domestic violence. In addition, I am a military veteran and very well versed in all areas of military life, having been a child in a military family, being a military wife, and being in the military myself. I am also the mother of two veterans. I have had a general private practice of my own and I work in a rural area with both adults and children. I have a very calming and non-judgmental approach with my clients, as I just love people and I want to help.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Kristen has given me the best experience with therapy. She listens, understands, encourages and most of all cares.

I've been seeing mental health professionals off and on for the last 20+ years, and the ones who have helped me the most with healing and growing have also been the ones who are more challenging for me. Kirsten has helped me immensely by validating my trauma I've endured and helping me come to a place of acceptance without minimizing the abuse I've endured, as others sometimes do. She demonstrates practical knowledge of the hurdles I face and navigates easily between offering her guidance and offering an empathetic ear.
