Cristen is a lifelong learner and spiritual seeker who believes every individual possesses an innate map that guides them toward healing and growth. She is deeply committed to honesty and soulful exploration and views therapy as a powerful journey of self-discovery and acceptance.

Cristen seeks to help individuals uncover the stillness and clarity within themselves where true transformation can occur. Through compassionate inquiry, she supports her clients in identifying long-held, unhelpful patterns as a means to liberation. Her goal is to create a safe, nurturing space where clients can connect with their inner strength, heal from past pain, and step into the fullness of their being.

Cristen earned her undergraduate degree in International Development Studies from Point Loma Nazarene University. She is currently pursuing her Master’s in Social Work at the University of Montana.
