Kris Kawulok, MA, NCC, CMHC, CSAT has a passion to come alongside and empower couples as they navigate the challenges of being known and making themselves known. Relationships are at the core of each of us as humans. From birth to this moment, each relationship creates internal pathways, like roadmaps. Our feelings of well-being, ability to establish and maintain meaningful connections, and the skills needed to navigate life’s challenges are all in our personal roadmap.  They guide us into pre-wired responses and reactions. When relationships are missing or damaged, we often need the support of a professional to help adjust the way we navigate personal, relational and behavioral challenges. Your commitment to therapy can serve to help repair your personal roadmap, empowering your journey towards healthy relationships. Kris has been working with clients for over 10 years. Let’s get started today.
