About
Kristin Arkis was born in Ohio and moved to Colorado at age 10. After graduating from Chaparral High school, Kristin attended Colorado University at Denver, where she obtained a bachelor’s degree in Psychology. She received her Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Southern New Hampshire University, finishing first in her class. Kristin works with all ages, including individual, group, and couples counseling. While she gravitates towards person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and relational-cultural therapeutic approaches to treatment, she understands the importance of incorporating a variety of treatment modalities to fit the needs of her clients. Kristin sees the therapeutic relationship as deeply personal and will respect your path and life choices while acting as a partner in your healing--not one who holds all the answers. She believes in focusing on an individual’s strengths and internal abilities to achieve self-growth. Kristin feels that forming an empathic, accepting connection with others is essential to healing and that everyone has the potential to change and to live their fullest life.

About
This journey through life takes us down many paths and experiences—some positive, some negative, and some big and small. Asking for help through your life experiences is a courageous first step! My goal as a therapist is to walk alongside you through this life journey by creating a therapeutic relationship that provides support, empathetic listening, and resources. You are the expert in your life, and my approach involves collaborating in the therapy process. My therapeutic view is systemic, which consists in discussing multiple factors/influences affecting a client(s) well-being and dilemmas. This can include discussing relationships, behaviors, thought processes, generational patterns, societal influences, and much more. Creating a safe, non-judgmental environment makes my client(s) feel secure in expressing their thoughts, emotions, values, and beliefs. Educating therapeutic skills has helped my clients decrease their anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and conflicts to improve their communication skills, review processes, self-confidence, and relationships in their lives.
Here is a little about me:
I moved to Colorado in 2013 after graduating with my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from the University of New Mexico. I spent the next few years working as a Business Analyst before finding my interest in therapy and enrolling in my master’s program. My therapeutic work has included an internship at an affordable counseling center, inpatient adolescent psychiatric treatment programs, and public care programs. I graduated with my Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University in 2020 and am now registered to practice psychotherapy in Colorado as an MFTC. I am working toward being licensed. Outside the therapy room, I enjoy reading, being a mother, building a partnership, spending time with friends, being a Broncos and Rockies fan, and exploring wonderful Colorado!

About
I hold an Associate degree in Psychology from San Antonio College, a Bachelor of Arts degree in Criminal Justice, a minor in Sociology, and a Master’s in Business Administration from The University of Texas, and a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University. I have worked full-time in the fields of Healthcare, Family Law, and Criminal/Juvenile Justice Systems. I am a certified trauma professional, fully trained in chemical dependency counseling, and have over 20 years of experience in volunteering my time and services as a special education advocate.
I believe wholeheartedly the therapeutic alliance is key to making long-lasting change! I also believe therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery. Our work is an affirmative process - your identities, and your experiences, matter to me. I am passionate about working with people of all ages and backgrounds and believe that though we may be experts on our own lives, having another empathetic person to talk things through with can help an individual reach their goals and aspirations.
Even the strongest person can be challenged by difficult experiences in their past or present life. Over time, we can become so complacent and comfortable with the discomfort that it becomes our new normal, forming our views and behaviors without knowing it's even happening. Life has a way of forcing us to confront things we believe we already overcame. Remember, therapy is not about “getting over” events and issues; it’s about understanding your triggers and learning how to manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to move forward and build a fulfilling life.
As a therapist, I work alongside my clients to explore areas in their lives where they feel stuck in the mud. With a non-judgmental approach, I help guide my clients to discover their inner strength so that they can remove the obstacles hindering them from living a vibrant life. I strongly believe in the power of the collaborative process between therapist and client. It is important to remember that a good therapist will extend their hand to a person sitting in the mud, but a GREAT therapist will always sit in the mud with you and get out together.
I specialize in working with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families in areas of CPTSD/trauma, divorce, high-conflict relationships, parental alienation, reintegration, social anxiety, adjustment, and attachment issues. I also work with high-conflict families on difficult parenting and family cases to help coach them through all stages of divorce. I have extensive experience with advocating for those with learning disabilities and providing guidance to families on navigating through an IEP and 504 processes.
I also strive to empower people to understand themselves and their situations better while at the same time providing resources for coping skills, developing healthy relationships, self-regulation, and instilling a positive self-image. I creatively use interventions and experiential moments when they are needed or helpful. I intentionally include mindfulness activities in most (if not all) sessions, whether that be through play, art interventions, modeling, or regulation strategies offered when needed.
“I want my clients to feel more connected to themselves throughout this process, moving towards self-awareness and self-acceptance. I believe that being understood is fundamental to change, and being able to help clients not only feel better and find relief but also understand their motivations and gain insight is one of my great joys.”
