🕊️ Our community is grieving deeply with Manhattan this week after the heartbreaking loss of two children. In moments like this, words fall short — but our hearts remain open.
At The Healing Center, we hold space for everyone impacted — families, friends, classmates, teachers, and neighbors and first responders.

Grief touches us all, and healing begins when we come together with empathy and care.
Please know you are not alone. 💛

🌿 Meet Kristina Kropidlowski, Therapist at The Healing Center 🌿

Kristina has been a part of The Healing Center family for 6 years, and in that time she’s touched countless lives with her compassion, wisdom, and commitment to helping others heal.

✨ Her favorite part of the job?
“Seeing clients take back control of their lives and begin healing from within. It’s so rewarding to witness that transformation — when someone finds peace after working through deep issues, it’s one of the most freeing feelings.”

💫 What does healing mean to Kristina?
“Healing isn’t just about reducing symptoms—it’s about helping clients reconnect with their sense of self, their values, and their ability to live authentically. It’s guiding them toward feeling whole again after fragmentation caused by trauma, loss, or hardship.”

💖 A proud moment:
“Seeing the joy that healing brings to our clients.”

🌈 Her words of encouragement:
“There is hope — never give up.”

When people walk through the doors of The Healing Center, Kristina hopes they feel…
💚 Safe and Welcomed: Free to bring their whole selves, without judgment.
💙 Seen and Valued: Truly noticed and reminded, ‘I matter here.’
💜 Calm and Grounded: Able to breathe, slow down, and know they’re not alone.
💛 Hopeful and Encouraged: Even in pain, to feel a spark that change is possible.

Thank you, Kristina, for the heart and hope you bring to every session. 💫
