How I Work
An Integrative, Whole-Person Approach
Your process does not need to look one specific way. Together we unravel the details of your unique human experience and find what is truly needed to support you.
Individual Sessions
My counselling style for individual sessions leans deeply into the practice of relational somatic therapy. I also weave in my background in mindfulness and meditation, parts work, nervous system regulation, polyvagal principles, IFS-inspired practices and embodiment.
I offer explorations and tools that are unique to your journey. Together we create space for old parts and previous experiences to arise and be worked with — held in love, non-judgment and curiosity.
Couples Sessions
My couples therapy integrates a blend of studies with the Gottman Institute, The Couples Institute and ongoing work in Attachment Theory, alongside over a decade of relationship coaching wisdom.
Twenty years of facilitation in tantra-informed relational practices informs a depth and warmth that is woven throughout the work we do together as a couple.
Relational Somatic Therapy
Relational Somatic Therapy (RST) is an approach to healing that works with the wisdom of the body and the power of human connection. By focusing on the present-moment physical sensations, nervous system regulation, and the safety of the therapeutic relationship, we can process held trauma and stress that talk therapy alone may not reach. It is a process of returning to yourself, finding ease in your body, and expanding your capacity for authentic connection with others.

Couples Counselling
Couples Counselling can help bring more love, understanding and fulfilment to your relationship. Whether you are struggling with the possibility of separation, navigating an affair, or simply wanting to deepen your connection — Couples Counselling can support you to reach your vision together.
Using a trauma-informed, attachment-based approach, Krista supports you to understand the patterns you are stuck in and create a more secure way of relating. She offers a confidential, non-judgmental and supportive space to explore what is happening in your relational process.
A counsellor is a neutral third party here to advocate for a healthy, thriving relationship — a chance to be seen, heard and to learn new skills for deeper love.
