Hi! I’m Kristina Dingus and I would be honored to work together and help you through your current struggles. Whether it’s anxiety, depression, communication challenges with your partner, difficulty finding balance in your daily routine, navigating your relationship with your kids, or feeling more individual purpose, I am happy to help you get to a place you want to be mentally and emotionally. I help clients find calm in life’s chaos and provide a warm and nonjudgmental space to empower each person to create change to live the life of their desires.
I provide mental health, behavioral health, and systemic clinical psychotherapy services to individuals, couples, and families, and I love working with teens and adolescents! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate (TX #202859), working under the supervision of Don Zablosky, LMFT-S (TX #5226), LPC-S (TX #18541). I am a Doctoral Candidate at Texas Woman’s University in Marriage and Family Therapy. I hold a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy, a Master of Arts in Psychology with an emphasis in Mediation & Conflict Resolution, and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology.
I completed a clinical internship at Promise House, an emergency shelter and transitional living program for homeless and at risk youth. Here I gained extensive training and experience in crisis and trauma-informed care working with children, teens and adolescents, and young adults. I also led weekly Love & Logic parenting classes to help parents and caregivers fulfill state requirements for reunification with their children.
I also trained at UT Southwestern Medical Center working with individuals, couples, and families experiencing chronic medical illness where the clinical focus is on strength, hope, and resiliency.
Additionally, I trained at the Texas Woman’s University Counseling and Family Therapy Clinic working with a wide variety of clients presenting with PTSD, anxiety, depression, sexual identity, family conflict, infidelity, interracial relationships, and LGBTQ struggles.
The combination of clinic training and experience paired with formal education provides the specialized skills needed to work efficiently with many types of people!
