Hello! my name is Kristin "Kris" Gonzales and I am excited about the opportunity to work with you! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been working with adults, adolescents, couples and families for over thirty years in the mental health and EAP field in a variety of settings. Life especially these days can feel overwhelming, frustrating and hopeless at times. Maybe you feel stuck and confused about what to do or how to find a solution. You do not have to go through this alone. I frequently hear this statement, "I thought it would be a good idea to talk to someone other than my family and friends about my situation". I use a collaborative approach and utilize effective evidence-based therapy interventions, such as CBT, Cognitive Processing, EMDR, Mindfulness, Christian-based, Psychodynamic, Brief-Solution Focused, Motivational Interviewing, ACT and Internal Family Systems therapy and incorporate other approaches to fit your specific needs and goals. Over the years, I have gained a wealth of experience working with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, mood disorders, low self-esteem, communication issues with couples and families, parenting, women's issues, post-partum depression, co-worker conflict and other work-related issues. My goal is to give you hope and guide you towards the life that you want and deserve. We will do this together! I am offering face to face, telephonic and video counseling sessions.
