Your child isn’t “too emotional”…

They’re just human. 💕

Big feelings in little bodies are normal, and it’s not a parents job to stop the wave — but rather ride it with them.

👉🏻When we co-regulate with our kids, we help wire their nervous systems for safety, resilience, and secure connection.

This doesn’t just benefit their childhood - it sets the foundation for healthy emotional expression as adults, too.

👉🏻A well regulated adult isn’t someone who doesn’t feel at all.. it’s someone who n owes how to feel without drowning. Emotional regulation isn’t about avoidance, it’s about attunement.

You’re not broken - but you miiigghhttt be responding from your Attachment Style.

In this powerful conversation with Laura Vient of Raising Well, I unpack how your earliest relationships shape how you love, argue, parent, and repair —

And what healing actually looks like when you’re trying to break cycle and raise emotionally secure kids.

We talk about:

♥️ The 4 attachment styles & how they show up in adult relationships
♥️ Why your kids (and partner) trigger your old wounds
♥️ The truth about rupture & repair in relationships
♥️ How your healing supports secure parenting
♥️ Why “bigger, stronger, wiser, & kind” should be your new parenting mantra
♥️ Tools for new parents trying to find their new normal

It’s a real and raw conversation for people who want deeper connections, safer conflict, and more emotional closeness - in parenting and partnership.

Does your partner shut down during conflict?

You try to talk through an issue, and suddenly they’re quiet, distant, or emotionally checked out. The more you try to connect, the more they seem to pull away. Sound familiar?

This is a common relationship pattern known as the anxious-avoidant trap, where one partner (often anxiously attached) seeks closeness during distress, and the other (often avoidantly attached) copes by withdrawing or minimizing.

Avoidantly attached individuals often grew up in environments where emotions were dismissed or discouraged. Conflict doesn’t feel like a chance to connect...it feels like a threat. So they retreat.

If you're the one reaching out and feeling rejected, it can feel incredibly painful. But here’s the thing: this dynamic can change. With the right tools, awareness, and support, you can break the cycle and build a relationship that feels safer for both of you.

You’re trying to do it differently…

You want to raise emotionally healthy kids.

You want to break the cycles you grew up in - not just as individuals, but together as a couple.

Though sometimes it feels like you’re not on the same page.

Maybe one of you is diving deep into healing while the other is just trying to survive the day-to-day.

Maybe you’re stuck in reactive patterns with each other — even though you swore you’d never show your kids what your parents showed you..

You love your kids and you love each other.

You want to be good role models, to show what healthy love looks like.

And still… it’s so so hard.

In my practice, we help couples co-create a new parenting legacy. One built on emotional safety, mutual respect, and a shared vision for your family.

We often talk to our clients about:

💕Building secure attachment (with your kids and each other)
💕Regulating your nervous systems together
💕Communicating without blame or shutdown
💕Showing up as a parenting team, even when things are hard
💕Repairing after rupture — because disconnection WILL happen, but repair is everything in healthy relationships

We can help you figure it out together.

About Me

Hi! I’m Krysteena and I am a licensed therapist. I graduated with an MA in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in Marriage & Family therapy in 2012 and have been practicing in a variety of settings for the past 8 years. I work with individuals, couples, and families with an intention of reducing distress and conflict by improving relationships and building self-confidence. I believe people are naturally positive and goal-oriented, though past experiences may create barriers that inhibit healthy growth. By providing support, validation, and thoughtful questioning, I aim to assist individuals in finding their own version of stability and happiness. I understand that we are all unique individuals and I tailor our sessions together to address your specific needs. We will work together to uncover the root cause of your concerns, address them with proven therapeutic techniques, and find the best solutions for you and what YOUR goals are for YOUR life.

Though I’ve worked with individuals from all walks of life, I particularly enjoy working with adults and/or couples interested in relationship-building, enhancing communication, or desiring assistance with life transitions. I also have specific experience working with youth with behavioral concerns and families affected by substance abuse, incarceration, infidelity, grief/loss, trauma, and parenting.

I am a passionate advocate for improved behavioral health care and I work toward promoting education and awareness of mental health issues to the community. In my free time, I recharge by spending time outdoors and enjoy gardening, hiking, camping, and yoga.

My office is located in central Boise on the Bench, near the Orchard and Franklin intersection. The environment is quiet, relaxing, and intended to make your visit as comfortable as possible. There is ample parking right in front of my office building.
