About Kristen
Kristen Wright is a California licensed marriage and family therapist with 30 years of experience. She focuses on helping adults who are feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, and low self-esteem. Kristen takes a calm, steady approach and aims to make therapy understandable and usable for everyday life.
She creates a nonjudgmental space where people can talk through painful memories and current stresses. Sessions are collaborative - she listens carefully and helps people set practical goals they can try between meetings. Her style emphasizes respect for each person’s background and pace.
Kristen uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Those approaches are used together to address symptoms and to build new coping habits.
Over three decades she has worked with a wide range of concerns, including attachment wounds, codependency, caregiver stress, body image issues, and isolation. She also supports people navigating family of origin issues, forgiveness, guilt, and struggles around life purpose.
She does not complete disability paperwork. To begin, people select Start Therapy, fill a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
