I'm Kiersten, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker practicing in the Burlington, VT area. I offer in-person and virtual psychotherapy to individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, effects of trauma, and other mental health symptoms. My speciality is working with parents in the perinatal period around experiences such as identity and role transitions, perinatal loss, birth trauma, and parenting-related stress. I work with clients to process and work through difficult experiences, relational issues, life changes, and anything else that may be preventing them from better connecting with their genuine self, their needs, and the life they envision for themselves. I believe these things are integral to the healing process, and often the first step in this journey is reaching out for support.
