Where clinical expertise meets the wisdom of your own body.
Guiding principles.
You are not your diagnosis.
I see the whole person in front of me — not a checklist of symptoms. Every session is guided by curiosity about you, not assumptions about what your struggles are supposed to look like.
Evidence-based. Human-first.
I draw from proven, research-backed modalities — EMDR, IFS, ACT, CBT, DBT, somatic approaches — and deliver them with the warmth and presence that actually makes healing possible.
Nothing is off the table.
Your relationship with food, your body, your partner, your faith, your identity as a new parent — it all belongs here. You won't have to compartmentalize to be understood.
You lead. I walk with you.
You are the expert on your own life. My job isn't to tell you who to be — it's to help you remember. I'll ask the hard questions, sit in the uncomfortable moments, and never rush you toward someone else's definition of healed.
Diving deeper
Most people don't need another referral. They need one person who finally gets all of it.
You've maybe already tried pieces of this. A therapist who was helpful, but didn't really understand the food stuff. A dietitian who gave you a meal plan but never touched what was underneath it. A doctor who ran labs and called you fine.
And still… something feels unresolved.
That's not a failure on your part. That's what happens when care is fragmented and the human in front of the provider gets lost in the handoff.

Kristen Draskovic, RDN, BSN, RN, LCSW
Registered Dietitian · Registered Nurse · Mental Health Therapist
Most therapists can hold your emotions. Most dietitians can talk about food. Most nurses understand your body. Kristen does all three, and that changes everything about what's possible in a session.
She works with adults who are tired of feeling stuck: in their bodies, in their relationships, in a version of themselves they don't quite recognize anymore. Whether you're unraveling a complicated relationship with food, finding your footing as a new parent, navigating a faith transition, healing from trauma, or trying to hold a relationship together that feels like it's fraying, Kristen creates a space where none of it has to be explained away or broken into pieces.
Her approach is grounded in EMDR, Somatic Eating, Intuitive Eating, Health at Every Size, and Walk and Talk therapy — and she pulls from a variety of cognitive and body-based holistic approaches, such as CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems, Somatic and Polyvagal approaches, Attachment Theory, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Interpersonal Neurobiology — all delivered with the kind of presence that makes you feel less alone from the very first session.
Step into a new way of being.
Real growth requires moving beyond the familiar toward the life you want to lead.
