Speaking & Events

Hosting a memorable event requires passion for the people you intend to reach. Choosing the right speaker for these events is the key element in making your vision into a reality. As an experienced therapist and engaging speaker, Kristen brings warmth, wisdom, and a grounded perspective to conversations about emotional health, relationships, identity, resilience, and personal growth. Her approach blends professional expertise (20 years of engaging collegiate classrooms and public speaking events) with the perspective that comes from years of helping clients navigate the complexities of real life. Being both founder and retreat leader for KH Counseling Holistic Health Retreats, Kristen understands exactly what it takes to effectively engage with an audience.

Whether speaking at an event, wellness retreat, conference, business or personal development gathering, Kristen creates an atmosphere where attendees can exhale, reflect, laugh, and recognize themselves in the conversation. She has a gift for making meaningful psychological concepts approachable and relevant—moving beyond clinical language to offer insights people can understand, remember, and apply to their own lives. Her presentations can explore topics such as boundaries, anxiety and overwhelm, relationships, faith matters, life transitions, self-worth, emotional wellness, caregiving, burnout, and rediscovering a sense of purpose.

Every event and audience is different, and Kristen works with organizers to create a presentation that fits the people in the room. From an intimate retreat conversation to a keynote-style presentation, her goal is to leave women feeling understood, encouraged, and equipped with a healthier perspective on themselves and the lives they are building. If you’re looking for a speaker who combines the credibility of an experienced therapist with warmth, relatability, and genuine connection, Kristen can bring a thoughtful and memorable voice to your next gathering.
