What clients say

  • “Crista is a wonderful listener.”
  • “Crista is amazing! I feel supported and heard without judgement. Even with time gaps in between doing therapy for different reasons she’s supportive and provides great resources and feedback. I’m so grateful for them!”
  • “Crista is amazing. They’ve been my rock through a lot of crap the last several years. Every week, I know I have someone checking in on me, and every week I also know I’ll have time to be able to vent my spleen or work through something challenging with Crista as my guide, and the person who can respectfully and responsibly challenge me. They’re super effective at helping me balance caring for myself amidst my other obligations, and I’ve become so much better at advocating for myself, setting and maintaining boundaries, and exploring what makes me tick. Couldn’t recommend Crista or BH enough!”

They know my primary focus is and my concerns and each week they make sure to focus on the key points to make sure I'm getting what I need out of therapy. I would recommend them to anyone!”

  • “She’s amazing!”
  • “Crista is a wonderful therapist and listens so well. Not every therapist does. They also help me to answer my own concerns too, which is also very helpful.”
  • “Crista has been such a wonderful and consistent support for me. I value their input and honestly more than I could ever explain. They are more than just a person who you unload on or get homework from. They have helped me to be more confident and to be far nicer to myself than I have been in the past. When I talk to them I am always feeling as though I don't want the session to end. I am so thankful for Crista, you should give them a chance! If the experience I've had is any predictor then you will not regret it!”
