About Claire Krietemeyer, LPC
I believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not a clinical evaluation.
I find great joy and purpose in my work as a counselor. I am always honored when a person shares their personal stories and inner world with me, and I take seriously the trust each client places in me when they choose to enter into counseling. It is my goal for the counseling relationship to be a collaboration between client and counselor. Each client enters counseling sessions with their own set of unique needs and circumstances, and I do my best to meet clients where they are currently in their journey.
My hope is that each client feels empowered during their time in counseling. While I can guide you in processing your experiences within a supportive, non-judgmental environment, I believe you are ultimately the expert on your own life and experiences. My role is to honor your story while also offering new perspectives and strategies to consider.
If you so choose, I will be glad to partner with you in your counseling process.
Values
- Compassion: You're met exactly where you are — no judgment about how you got here or what you're carrying.
- Collaboration: Therapy works best as a two-way process — your goals and pace shape the work, always.
- Community: Therapy is simply one support to help you thrive – I also help connect you with other resources in your local community.
