About Kristen Goulette, LCMHC, MA

I have over 10 years of experience providing individual therapy to adults (18+), providing support and guidance for those navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and personal growth. I see the therapeutic relationship as the foundation of psychotherapy, and I aim to create a space of comfort and safety where my clients can find the courage to look within themselves honestly and compassionately.

Trauma 

I have specialized training in evidence-based practices for treating those that have experienced complex trauma. A trauma-sensitive approach may be used with anyone, not only those that have been affected by severe traumatic events. Some tenets of this practice include adaptiveness, attunement, and non-judgment.

ADHD

For folks with ADHD, moving from Point A to Point B can seem nearly impossible. I incorporate specific behavioral strategies geared toward supporting those with ADHD in navigating common hurdles and barriers that keep them stuck. Especially for those diagnosed as adults, my compassionate, authenticity-based approach supports self-acceptance, self-awareness, and confidence that are often badly damaged pre-diagnosis.

College Students

Working at Middlebury College's counseling center, I gained an understanding of the unique stressors that the college student cohort faces. I enjoy collaborating with students in exploring how their college experience can be rich and fulfilling -- not only academically, but holistically.
