More About Kaitlynn Rivers

Clinical Interests:

I have a passion for connecting with children and adolescents and helping them navigate through trauma, anxiety, depression, disruptive behaviors, self-esteem and everyday stressors. I have previous experience working with youth in residential treatment programs, intensive in-home settings, and elementary schools. I believe in early interventions and equipping parents with tools and techniques to address their children’s varying needs. In addition to working with children and their parents I also enjoy working with adults across the lifespan as they navigate life transitions, heal from their pasts, and grow into their full potentials.

Clinical Approach:

When working with clients I adjust my approach to meet individual needs. I utilize modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Mindfulness, Play Therapy, and Polyvagal Theory. I am open to incorporating the client’s spirituality in session if they so choose. Ultimately, my client’s are the experts on themselves, and I partner with them on their journey to healing and self-discovery.

Hobbies:

In my spare time, I love spending my time outdoors camping, hiking, or out on a lake somewhere. I also love reading and painting as well.
