Hi, I'm Kristine
I'm a therapist and writer exploring what it means to break free and come home: to ourselves, to each other, and to the earth
Therapy, Coaching, Retreats
ABOUT ME
My defining roles are Therapist, Writer, and Mother. I co-own a therapy and wellness practice in South Bend, IN, and lead retreats for women in Sedona, AZ. As a woman who has done my fair share of leaving - my home state of CA, the religion I grew up in, my marriage - I'm curious about the "shoulds" that govern our lives, the trauma we inherit and endure, and the relationships we reckon with. I have deep Scorpio energy (and nary a shallow end) but I love a good, irreverent joke and whole weekends spent in my sweatpants.
What I'm working on
I write on themes of motherhood and midlife and what it means to be a woman living in a world that feels threatened by her--by her intuition and wisdom, her independence and freedom, her sexuality and pleasure, and her own self-love. I gain a great deal of inspiration from other female writers, my clients, and the earth (our Great Mother).
​
I spent most of 2024 writing a memoir and then decided it probably needed to be a novel. Writing is messy! While working on the book, I've also written a handful of creative nonfiction essays currently awaiting publication.
