Today we’d like to introduce you to KRISTLE SMALL.
Hi KRISTLE, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I began my career in mental health at the early age of 23. I graduated from Temple University in 2011 with a masters degree in counseling psychology. I always had a passion for helping people with depression and anxiety as I have struggled with it myself in the past. I began to work as a mental health therapist for community centers in Philadelphia and I noticed the need to help diverse communities with mental and emotional wellness. As I developed during this time I became a licensed professional and began to work for a variety of mental health companies. Overtime, I began my own private practice and to treat individuals, families and couples from diverse backgrounds. This eventually grew into a group practice where I could help multi-cultural groups access mental health care. My passion is to help individuals and communities manage their mental health issues and develop a sense of purpose and resiliency.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
No. It has not been a smooth road. During my career I have battled grief/loss, depression, anxiety and other emotional concerns. I have suffered with self doubt and imposter syndrome as well. I have encountered individuals and superiors who have not wanted to see me succeed as well as professionals who have not believed in my abilities and values.
We’ve been impressed with Kristle J Small Counseling Group, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
We are a mental health group practice committed to helping individuals, families, and couples from diverse backgrounds. We specialize in treating individuals who suffer with depression, trauma, anxiety, relationship issues and more. We are separate from others in the sense that we provide high quality services to the people we serve. We value our customers and treat them with the upmost respect and care. I am most proud of helping individuals grow, develop, ease the burden of mental health concerns. We offer virtual counseling services throughout the state of Pennsylvania and Delaware. We provide individual therapy, couples counseling, and family therapy.
Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
I love to sing! In my next life I would love to sing professionally.
