Supervised by Tara Bates, MSW, LCSW-S Kristina is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) who genuinely enjoys helping people make sense of life when things feel heavy, confusing, or stuck. She earned her master’s degree in social work from the University of Texas at Arlington and also holds a master’s degree in sociology from Temple University in Philadelphia. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, burned out, stressed, or just not quite like yourself, Kristina gets it—and you’re not alone. With nearly 20 years of experience teaching at the college level and working in nonprofit settings, Kristina brings both knowledge and real-world understanding into the therapy room. She’s especially attuned to how relationships, life transitions, and larger social systems can shape how we think, feel, and move through the world. If you’re unsure about therapy or feeling nervous about starting, that’s completely okay. Kristina welcomes those conversations and believes therapy works best when you feel comfortable being honest—even about your doubts. She works with individuals, couples, and groups, including adolescents, young adults navigating change, middle-aged adults, and older adults (65+). She supports clients dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, grief, trauma, PTSD/C-PTSD, ADHD, relationship challenges, life transitions, and women’s issues. Above all, she strives to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and judgment-free. Life can be really hard at times. Kristina believes that with the right support, you can build tools that help you feel more grounded, more in control, and more connected to yourself. Her approach is collaborative and flexible, drawing from evidence-based practices like attachment-focused therapy, CBT, DBT, ACT, narrative and solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based perspectives. She tailors therapy to your goals, values, and pace—because there’s no one-size-fits-all path to healing. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start therapy. Come as you are. Kristina is known for her warmth, patience, and ability to truly listen. She believes everyone deserves a life with more ease, meaning, connection, and moments of joy. I am honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing, growth, and lasting change. I am always TEAM YOU!
