How Dr. Kristin Ljungberg Can Help You

 

"Five years ago, I entered under Dr. Kristin’s care and expertise for healing. I was trapped in my vast wilderness of limiting beliefs, conditioned cycles of response, and toxic relationships. My unexplored emotions were holding me captive and making me physically unhealthy. Dr. Kristin's remarkable proficiency in psychology, along with her empathic spirit and overall ability to intuit my needs helped remove the obstacles to (sweet...sweet!) freedom. Dr. Kristin's genuine, all-there presence opened a safe space so I could hear my true voice buried under trauma-debris and emotion-stuffing. Now, I feel healthy and empowered to choose a path where I can be fully me; moreover, I have the TOOLS to forge my best future. 

.....Ever expanding ...ever seeking kingdoms of creativity and joy."

‘I was utterly confused and saddened by the death of my father, the loss of my job, the ceaseless pain from a running injury, and the prospect of turning 50. Through four years of unrelenting anxiety and major depression, I worked with many psychologists, psychiatrists, and psychiatric clinicians. Apart from my spouse, Dr. Kristin was the one caregiver amongst many who remained steadfastly by my side through the challenge of my life. Dr. Kristin stands out as the person, who doubtless saved me with her compassion, her therapeutic tools to mitigate symptoms, her readiness to collaborate with my family, and her steadfast presence during such a difficult journey back to good health. When I most needed a caring soul to help me navigate the storm, she was there.  Looking back, finding her was providence.  Dr. Kristin became my lighthouse to help me navigate darkening waters.”

“I did not know what to do – leave my marriage, quit my job – I only knew that something had to change.  Dr. Kristin told me at my first visit that therapy would be like peeling back the layers of an onion.  Throughout the process, she has been a kind and stable ally, both safekeeping my hope when it waned and consistently supporting my growth.”

“Dr. Kristin has been an instrumental force in my life over the last decade. Although my original goal was to seek help regarding a relationship, over the years, she has helped me with my eating disorder, familial relationships, personal development, and even performance at work. I was in awe at how one individual could transform so many different areas of another person’s life. I am healthier, happier, and healed because of her and for that, I am forever grateful. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Kristin. You won’t regret it!”

"I found Dr. Kristin during a time in my life when I truly was drowning in anxiety, panic and a myriad of physical health issues.  With her help, guidance, tools and gifts, she walked me through my own layers of discovery and eventually to my healing.  Looking back, I dread to think of where I could have ended up if it weren't for my commitment to our work together.  It sounds cliche, but because of her I found my realest self, I understand more pointedly my strengths and weaknesses, and I have confidence in both!  As our relationship has matured, I've found her tools useful time and time again.  I wish everyone could have a Dr. Kristin in their lives.  She is a touchstone to my life and I believe if we all did, the world would be a better place.  In short, I am stable and healthy and have never felt stronger mentally, emotionally or physically.  She makes your life's work a real journey of joy."

“Kristin is a kind, multi-skilled and unassumingly brilliant therapist.  Our 30 year marriage with a blended family had often been a battlefield.  We were left mainly feeling lonely, discouraged and defensive.  We had the desire to change but other therapies had failed us and we felt defeated.  A friend had often encouraged us to try Emotionally Focused Therapy which has  a 75% success rate for couple's who are experiencing significant distress.  In a desperate final effort we agreed to call Kristin nearly 5 years ago.  Now our life together is so much better!  We are friends.  We can work together.  We continue to grow in understanding our own selves and each other.  When feelings are amiss we can talk it over and often resolve it.  If we had not had Kristin's insightful guidance particularly now in this Covid-19 pandemic we would be in hell as perceived enemies.  To us Kristin is a miracle worker.  She has our unending respect and gratitude.”

"I was in complete crisis mode: not eating, shaking with the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and very, very confused. Dr. Ljungberg counseling helped me to know, heal, and value myself. Her intelligence in my process helped me to trust my instincts and feel safe again."

‘It’s a rare gift to be able to combine empathy, understanding, and insight the way Kristin can. Through our ongoing journey together, she has helped me see, confront, and work on my negative paths with compassion. Because of Kristin, I’ve been able to do the really hard work necessary to finally be happy with who I am and what I am able give to others. Because of Kristin, I’ve been able to honestly embrace my strengths as well as my weaknesses with kindness. Kristin has shown me that being my most authentic self means progress and not perfection. Which is truly, truly, one of life’s greatest gifts.”
