Kristina Kersting

I have over 20 years of expertise as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), holding a PhD in Family Therapy from St. Louis University. With a profound commitment to supporting individuals and families, I offer a unique depth of understanding in the field, underscored by my specialized research on “Suicide and the Family System.” My dissertation work and extensive training in suicide risk assessment equip me with the advanced skills and insights needed to provide compassionate, effective care in even the most challenging circumstances.
My career is marked by a diverse range of roles across various therapeutic settings, having served as a therapist, supervisor, program manager, and director. My experience spans private practices, agencies, hospitals, and educational institutions,and this has allowed me to adapt to the unique needs of each client and setting. I utilize a holistic approach, emphasizing both mental health and family dynamics to create meaningful, long-term changes.
