Hello, my name is Kristi (she/her). I am a Psychologist and I support adults to build self-acceptance, embrace their unique strengths, navigate life's challenges, and create meaningful change.
The majority of my practice focuses on:
ADHD and autism
obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
trauma
anxiety and depression
My neurodiverse clients often come into therapy dealing with internalised ableism, and secondary anxiety and depression, which often arise from feeling misunderstood and from the challenges of navigating a neurotypical world. After working together, clients typically experience greater self-acceptance, confidence, and authenticity, as they reframe their experiences through a neuro-affirming lens and embrace their unique individuality.
About Me
Connection is at the core of my approach. I listen with care and curiosity, offering a comforting space where you can reflect and develop deep self-understanding. My strength-based method encourages self-acceptance and empowers you to embrace your individuality with confidence.
I aim to help you build a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling. Together, we will navigate the difficulties you are facing, moving toward lasting change grounded in authenticity, self-compassion, and insight.
