KRISTEN BARRY
THERAPY
Meet Kristen Barry
I work with youth who are struggling at home, school, or with friends; they may have worries that seem too big to control, appear sad or down, or have difficulty doing what is expected. In my work with youth and their families, we build on the strengths that already exist to promote growth and change. In sessions we focus on identifying and learning skills to help them be successful.

MY APPROACH
Integrative
Kristen integrates a variety of Evidenced-Based Practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, Systems Theory, Directive and Non-Directive Play Therapy, in order to reduce challenges. Kristen also focuses on the integration of the mind and body to promote growth, change, and balance.
Relational
Kristen believes in the power of connection in order to create change. Kristen focuses first on establishing safety in the room and in the therapeutic relationship in order to identify and reduce the barriers to success in all environments.

Cognitive-Behavioral
Kristen recognizes the power that thoughts have on a person's feelings and behaviors. Kristen works with youth and their families to identify harmful thoughts and shift patterns of thinking in order to empower youth and find balance.
