Welcome!
Open a door of hope to a better future

Sometimes we can see goals on the horizon but it seems impossible to reach them.

 

Other times, all we can see are the difficult circumstances that feel crushing.

 

During these moments, it is easy to feel stuck, trapped in the idea that life will always be how it's always been.

 

But this doesn't have to be the case.

 

Whether you want to learn new skills to reach your goals or you want to find healing from the past pain and traumas that rob you of current peace and joy, there is hope for a better tomorrow.

 

There is hope for healing.

 

It might involve taking the risk of opening a new door to challenge your status quo.

 

Therapy can serve as a door of hope,

inviting you into a spacious place,

where healing and freedom await

and where new possibilities can emerge.

About Kristen Cummins

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Board-Certified Professional Christian Counselor,

I have managed a private practice for over 15 years. 

I enjoy coming alongside others to assist them on their healing journeys. 

 

My doctorate in Traumatology and two masters degrees, one in Marriage and Family Therapy and another in Theology, have equipped me with a broad base from which to draw in addressing a variety of issues and concerns.

 Impassioned about healing and growth, I believe that we are all created for a purpose and that we are designed to grow mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and relationally throughout our entire lives. 

There is always another rock to look under, another mountain to climb, and another idea to explore.

 

I enjoy embarking with others across the many terrains that life's challenges promote, and discovering the hidden treasures of transformation and growth that result in saying 'yes' to the journey.

Therapy provides a beautiful space to address the tender issues of life in a private and confidential setting.  

 

Individual sessions will invite you to find respite from life's storms, creating a safe place for you to exhale.  I will collaborate with you to develop a treatment plan specifically designed to help you reach your personal therapeutic goals.  

Couples sessions will invite you both to step out of the daily grind to address the patterns afflicting your relationship. I will provide a healing setting to identify and overcome the struggles that prevent your relationship from moving forward toward new growth.

 

Family sessions will invite family members into new experiences of being with themselves and with each other.  I will help to resolve the burdens that have caused distress and reestablish the joys found when we emerge on the other side of life’s storm into healthier ways of being.

Life Coaching offers an incredible opportunity to tailor an individualized growth plan in whatever area of life you choose. As a Life Coach, I will assist you in clarifying the mission and vision which

best describes you.  I will identify the 

opportunities that align with the dreams and goals you embrace so we can

co-create action plans that track your journey toward achieving your goals.

 

My doctoral research and dissertation was on the Mindsets and Behaviors of Resilience and I thrive on applying new ways of thinking to old obstacles.

I will delight in pushing you out of your comfort zone so you can conquer the challenges that you have been avoiding, but which will actually force you to grow into the person that you desire to become. 

 

Life Coaching is an empowering process.  Because it is custom-tailored, there are unlimited possibilities in how to create a meaningful and transformative Life Coaching experience..

03.

I enjoy researching, writing, and teaching on a variety of topics and themes.  I teach for various churches and groups on different subjects, tailoring presentations toward their group's chosen interests and goals.  

 

I speak at Bible studies, conferences, and weekend retreats.  While I sometimes fill a speaking spot for a topic that fits the organizer's overall theme, other times I am invited to design the overall theme.  I love to coordinate the teaching flow with meaningful moments of encounter that make the teaching more tangible.  By creating experiential encounters, 

learning transitions from head 

knowledge into life-transforming moments.  

 

have a team of women who are experienced in working together to create meaningful events that facilitate

might be a fit for your group's needs
