About me

Hello! My name is Kristina Durene. I am a mental health counselor licensed in the state of Washington with approximately 11 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, interpersonal and relationship issues, parenting and family problems, career challenges, and health and wellness challenges. I have worked with many individuals who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. In addition I have both professional and lived experience working with military veterans and family members.

As I strive for authenticity in all my interactions with clients, my counseling style is warm and interactive. I am a firm believer that health is holistic and not one dimensional; that we are mind, body and spirit. As such, I will take an integrative approach that explores all areas of health as they may impact emotional, mental, relationship and spiritual health. I believe in treating each client/couple with dignity, respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and holistic and integrative therapies. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your specific needs as you strive to strengthen and find resolve in your relationship. I will hunt the good stuff in your relationship and I will strive to identify and highlight not only individual strengths, but your strengths as a team as well.

I honor your courage to pursue a more fulfilling and joy-filled life and to take the first steps towards making those changes. If you are ready to take those steps I am here to support, encourage and empower you. It is my greatest joy to walk with couples as they come into alignment with who they are purposed and called to be, both individually and as a team.

I look forward to working with you!

Written on Aug 02, 2026 after therapy with Kristina for 3 months on issues concerning relationship

Kristina has been kind and empathetic, creating a supportive environment where we both feel heard. She asks thoughtful, sometimes challenging questions that help us see situations from a different perspective and better understand each other. We appreciate her guidance and highly recommend her.
