Kristan Looney, M.A.
Resident in Counseling
I will partner with you to help you make connections between past experiences, present challenges and what you hope for your future. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to process and express authentic emotion, heal, learn, develop insight, and grow. I work with adolescents and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief, difficulty with life decisions and transitions, issues with identity and self-esteem, and relational struggles.
As a former special education teacher, I bring experience working with children with special
needs, families facing challenges, and advocacy. I have worked with students from primary
school through college and have provided mental health services for young adults in a college
counseling center.
