I love working with people who are resistant to counseling and have difficulty opening up. I have a particular interest in working with challenging cases, such as people experiencing severe emotional/behavioral symptoms, in crisis, or generally feeling cynical about life. I work with youth and adults with a collaborative, strengths-based approach that focuses on using their existing motivation and strengths to work towards healing and growth. I most commonly work with depression and anxiety, trauma recovery, and addressing unhealthy coping such as social withdrawal, self-harm, and lashing out in anger. My background is in working with youth and adults in psychiatric residential, outpatient, and day treatment programs. In addition to private practice, I work for the county crisis team and mental health response team (a partnership with the Sheriff's office) to provide mental health assessment/intervention in crisis situations. I have training and experience using play therapy and evidence-based techniques, including Collaborative Problem Solving, Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I have a sliding scale and frequently have evening availability. For more information, check out my website at KristinLanningCounseling.com
