About Us

A place to return to yourself

Hi, I’m Kristen.

I started Wilde Counseling to create a space that feels honest, grounded, and deeply human. A place where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and be supported without pressure or pretense.

Here, therapy isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about honoring your resilience, tending to the parts of you that feel worn thin, and making space for new ways of being.

My approach is rooted in nervous system healing, somatic and attachment-focused therapy, and helping you reconnect with yourself in a way that feels steady and authentic.

Before opening my practice, I worked in inpatient and residential treatment centers supporting women recovering from trauma, exploitation, and addiction. That experience changed me. It showed me how resilient we are, and how deeply we need spaces where we don’t have to hold it all together.

Now, in private practice, I specialize in helping women heal from love addiction, anxious attachment in romantic relationships, and trauma driven relationship patterns.

My approach is grounded in somatic and attachment-focused therapy, and I draw from EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Somatic Experiencing (SE) to help people connect with themselves on a deeper level.

If you're tired of white-knuckling it, pretending you're fine when you're not, and done carrying the loneliness alone, this is for you. You don't have to figure it out before you reach out. You just have to be ready to stop pretending.

What sets us apart

Healing isn’t a straight line—and we don’t expect you to have it all figured out. At Wilde Counseling, we honor the wilderness each of us carries inside—the survival instincts, the resilience, the grief, and the strength that got you this far. We aren’t here to pathologize your pain. We’re here to meet you with compassion, deep respect, and a steady belief that you can reclaim your story and rebuild a life that feels like yours.

Our Values

Empathy

We honor the unique story, resilience, and beauty that each client brings. Compassion isn’t just a value here—it’s the heart of how we show up in every session.

Integrity

We believe in thoughtful, evidence-based therapeutic work. You deserve a space built on trust, confidentiality, and a deep respect for your experiences.

Get In Touch

This is therapy for deep feelers, high achievers, and women who’ve spent their lives trying to do the “right thing,” even when it cost them parts of themselves.

Our work is about helping you reconnect with yourself, feel more at home in your body, and release the old stories that never truly belonged to you.
