The Art of Living Well — Messy Edges Welcome.
Healing isn’t perfection. It’s remembering who you are, returning to connection, and letting yourself be human again.

Therapy and assessment for people who carry a lot.

Choose the path that fits you best:

Therapy

For high-capacity people navigating boundaries, relational patterns, burnout, and major life transitions. Depth work, paced with care.

ADHD assessment

For those seeking clarity around attention, overwhelm, executive functioning, and “why this feels so hard.” Trauma-informed, neuroaffirming, and practical.

  • In my career, I have had the benefit of working with a variety of therapists and psychologists who all have their own styles…for better and worse. Cristen has been my role model and teacher at times while also allowing me to be the same for her. I have and will always refer folks to her with 100% confidence. She is a loving human who is continually curious, humble, and seeks to join which are the aspects of the “secret sauce” of a good therapist, in my opinion. It isn’t just psychological knowledge that makes a good therapist…although she has that in spades as well.

  • Cristen as clinician has a breadth and depth of knowledge in trauma informed care that allows her to approach a variety of people and care for them thoughtfully. She also has an astute intuition and ability to connect with others that exceeds expectations.

  • Cristen has been a close colleague and friend of mine for over a decade now. In knowing her I feel confident in saying she is someone who was born to do this work. It is in her bones. She is present, compassionate, in tune, and aware in a way that is visceral. She maintains professionalism while bringing a raw and quirky realness to her work that is rooted in science and tons of personality. She will challenge you while also gently holding space for anything you may bring to the therapeutic relationship, and I would recommend her to anyone!
