Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kristen Smith. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Kristen is incredibly supportive, non judgmental and adept at what she does
Kristen shows incredible empathy in her sessions. She was skilled in de-escalating any arguments between my husband and me. Her kind demeanor was very inviting, and I felt comfortable and at ease sharing with her.
Kristen is patient, knowledgeable,
Extremely understanding.
Kind, caring, compassionate and she remembers what has been said even if weeks before. Without exaggeration she has saved my life more than once.
The information that has been shared with us from Kristen has been eye opening, she has been fair in her speech when addressing us in the chats and has not shown to have taken sides but is showing us how to work together. She has also provided each of us validation for how we are feeling with understanding. I feel heard for the first time in a long time. Dealing with a separation, has been difficult to navigate, but her words are making it easier to handle.
Kirsten has been very warm, understanding and approachable, from the start myself and my husband felt very comfortable in sharing our situation. Kirsten listened to us and teased out key factors for us to work on, she supported us with worksheets and reflection practices to help me and my husband work on some of our most troubling aspects of ourselves. We’ve overcome some difficulties from the past and present which is allowing us to be more open and understanding with each other. We’ve been together over 30 years and I’m confident we’ll go another 30!! Thanks to Kirsten for helping us on our journey. Definitely recommend Kirsten and will contact her again should we need further guidance. Thank you Kirsten for helping us clear away some of the clutter and helping to get back to wanting to be together!!
Very good experience and professional approach . Highly recommended
Kristen has been a life saver. She listens and helps me redirect my energy to what’s important for me. She does this with compassion, which is a gift. Kristen has helped me realize the importance of taking care of myself.
Kristen is objective, listens well, and provides her opinion on the matter. She tries to see all sides of a problem and provides very relevant exercises. Her worksheets helped me think differently about the matter.
It has been good so far
I have had several sessions with Kristen and I can attest that she is exceptional and because of her she has saved my marriage. Thank you Kristen.
Kristen is wonderful to work with!
