KRISTIN GINGELL
M.A, LPC Resident in Counseling
Every Age Every Stage Clinician
At present, my professional history includes working with a high-needs population at a community-based psychosocial rehabilitation center and working one-on-one with clients of all ages and life circumstances in a private practice setting. I prioritize taking a creative and individualized approach to fit the needs of each client who steps into my office!
I am open to working with individuals of all ages and presenting issues. My primary work has been with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem/body image struggles, interpersonal conflict, underlying trauma, and emotional dysregulation. I view all my clients through a holistic, multicultural, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and grief-and-loss lens.
My primary goal is to create a safe, trusting, and collaborative space for you to be fully and uniquely yourself. I use an integrated approach to counseling, with my primary way of being rooted in person-centered theory, believing that you are the expert in your own life and healing journey. I often use cognitive behavioral theory and solution-focused interventions while providing my clients with mindfulness and thought-centered coping strategies. I place focus on the mind-body connection to help my clients gain insight into the way in which they are fully experiencing their presenting issue.
I am excited to meet you and come alongside you as you embark on your healing journey!
I believe that you have the full capability within you to overcome anything that life throws your way, and I am just here to guide you along that journey of self-discovery.
