Cultural Identities

About Kristine Galan

Kristine is a Licensed Therapist. She obtained her Master’s in Social Work from Rutgers University. She is a client-centered therapist dedicated to helping individuals reconnect with themselves and create meaningful, lasting change.

She has worked with adolescents and young adults experiencing symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, depression, life transitions, interpersonal relationships, and working through trauma. Her clinical focus is working with adolescents and young adults in college, but she is open to working with everyone!

She works collaboratively to understand each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and challenges. She strives to create a supportive and safe space where clients feel seen, heard, and understood. She approaches therapy through a strong cultural lens, centering the environment, family systems, and cultural values that shape your inner world.

Kristine’s goal is to help her clients find manageable ways to cope and build on their inner strength so they can face any challenging life circumstances.

She integrates modalities such as Motivational interviewing (MI), Mindfulness, Strengths based, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Informed Care, and Somatic Experiencing (SE).

Kristine understands therapy can be intimidating and welcomes you to come as you are. She believes everyone deserves the opportunity to have their life story heard without judgement.

Throughout my years of clinical experience, I have seen therapy literally transform lives. In our work together, you will have space to feel seen, heard, and understood.

My priority is to create a comfortable and non-judgmental environment where you can explore what is really going on, including your thoughts, feelings, challenges, and hopes.
