Kristin Kempff, MS, LMHC, is a compassionate counselor dedicated to being present for individuals as they navigate life's inevitable challenges. With a Master of Science degree in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University, along with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Arizona State University, Kristin draws a profound connection between her background in literature and her work as a therapist. Both pursuits seek to uncover meaning and beauty amidst hardship, delving into the intricacies of the human experience. As a mother of two young children, she offers invaluable insights and understanding for those grappling with parenting, postpartum recovery, and prenatal mental health. Kristin possesses specialized training and experience in supporting survivors of child sexual abuse, sexual assault, substance use issues, and trauma-induced self-harm behaviors. In a world that often feels fast-paced and rushed, she believes in the power of slowing down and encourages a ‘loafing’ approach to therapy, recognizing that many people struggle to truly be present in their own lives. Through her genuine warmth and expertise, Kristin fosters a safe environment for healing and self-exploration.
