Kristen & Neurofeedback

Drawing on Kristen’s strengths based philosophy and approach to therapy, she has witnessed first hand the impact neurofeedback can have on an individuals well-being allowing them to become more resilient and flexible, particularly when life throws its curve balls.

Kristen now runs a neurofeedback training company and integrated psychotherapy practice, where she helps her clients understand that we are all a combination of nature (genetics) and nurture (environment). We may not be able to change our genetics, be we can change our environment and how we respond to it.  

Because our environment plays such a key role in our lives, Kristen believes in the power of family systems and dynamics and encourages all families to train.

As part of her integrated healing practice, NeurOptimal® neurofeedback has become an alternative opportunity for those who wish to seek wellness without the use of traditional medicine.

In her integrated psychotherapy practice, Kristen works with individuals (adolescence through adulthood), couples, families and groups. She has given presentations to local counseling professionals, parents, and teachers regarding the education and understanding of ADHD, Spectrum and Sensory Processing Disorders, and Twice Exceptional Individuals.

Kristen lives in the Los Angele area with her husband, two children, trained therapy dogs and chickens. When she isn’t training her own brain, she enjoys being creative, gardening, cooking and traveling.
