Hello, my name is Kristy. I have been a licensed clinical professional counselor for over 25 years. Everyone has a story to tell. Everyone also has encountered struggle of some type..

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes a great deal of courage to take that first step to reach out and ask for help when going through struggles and attempting to make life changes. I commend you for taking that step and I look forward to hearing your story.

Kristy is the best, hands down. She listens with compassion, validates my feelings even when I know I'm being a bit unreasonable, and never makes me feel dumb even when I know I can do some pretty dumb things. She treats with a Godly love and with laughter in her heart. She humble and is not afraid to laugh at herself, showing me that I too can laugh when things get crazy. She is knowledgeable with worksheets at the ready and always makes me feel like she genuinely cares.

Written on Jan 24, 2023 after therapy with Jewel Kristine (Kristy) for 6 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and self esteem
I have been with Kristy for 2 and a half months now. I just recently went through a tough break up with my boyfriend of 7 years. Kristy has really helped me feel valid about my feelings and has helped me set boundaries. I go to Kristy if ever a situation with him comes up and she’s always there to make me feel important. She makes me feel like I’m not alone in my thoughts. Not only does she ask about that situation, she asks me about my work/school life as well. One thing I love about having Kristy as my therapist is that she will respond to my messages as soon as she can. She’s very active on BetterHelp and will make sure she can help out. She tries to accommodate to you as much as she can.
Kristy is my first therapist I’ve had and I love working with her!

I happened upon Kristy after not wanting the first therapist suggested for me! It was the best ‘happening’ for me. I came to Kristy broken, bitter, angry and hopeless after separating from my husband. She has poured into me so much that in just a few months we’ve been meetings, I’m ready to move forward in my life, my hope is being renewed, my confidence and faith have grown and so much more! She has a lovely soul and such a kind demeanor. I never felt invisible or less important with her. Highly recommend connecting with her!!

Kristy was the perfect therapist for me. I am in remission from depression and anxiety and feel at this time I will stop counseling.
It is hard for me to do that because she has been a part of my life for several months.
Kristy did everything she could to answer my texts in a timely fashion and to
answer my urgent texts with “how can I help you”?
She challenged me and listened to my needs. I feel she was instrumental in helping me to have hope and stay on course. I am eternally grateful to her!

I can't say enough about the help Kristy has provided me and the better person she has helped me become.
She can be tough me on me when I need it but also prop me up when I'm down and out.
Her best quality in my opinion though, is quick responses on the Better Help messaging app. There are times I can really use some advice and support in between sessions and she's always there for me.
For that I can never thank her enough.
