Kristen Buchannan
Do you feel that one of the most important aspects of counseling is relationship building and establishing trust? I like to meet my clients where they are and help them to grow from there. Counseling is a safe place to be vulnerable, express feelings of fear or sadness, and a place to plant seeds of hope and develop self-efficacy and peace. Counseling can involve a great deal of self-reflection and I also like to work from a goal and solution focused approach. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker Supervisor with a master’s degree from Case Western Reserve University. I have a wide range of experience but am very passionate about children and adolescents, who of course, need to be treated in the context of their families and I love behavioral training with parents. I have a special interest in clients with chronic pain and complex medical needs. My work is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, teaching coping strategies and using meditation and mindfulness, though I incorporate play therapy, art therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into my work.
