Krista Perez, Marriage and Family Therapy Trainee

Are you feeling hopeless? Stuck? Fearful?Uncomfortable in your own skin or in your relationships? We all know that pain in life is  unavoidable, but I’d love to help you carry that burden while we work towards a solution. I aim to create a space where you will not be judged but will be unconditionally supported as we navigate through your concerns and fears. I believe that you are the expert on your life, we will work collaboratively to find the relief and balance that works for you. 

​

As an MFT Trainee at Kindred Heart Therapy Group, I am passionate about supporting individuals and families in navigating life's challenges through a collaborative and client-centered approach. My goal is to create a safe space where individuals can explore their experiences and develop coping mechanisms to foster positive change. I focus on empowering clients by identifying strengths, setting achievable goals, and developing practical coping skills. Whether supporting adolescents, young adults, or families, my approach is direct, compassionate, and results oriented. I am committed to fostering a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can build the confidence and tools needed for lasting change. With a background in juvenile justice and residential treatment, I understand the complexities of behavioral challenges, trauma, and resilience. I bring a unique perspective to therapy, integrating Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). 

 

In my spare time, I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends traveling, camping and hiking.
