Professional statement

Dr. Kristin Davin is a Clinical Psychologist who welcomes individuals 18+ to her practice. She is passionate about helping people transform their lives into one that is healthy and sustainable. She believes strongly that hearing each person's story, especially their first chapter, their family of origin as this first chapter in life often influences the choices that people make in their life is key in therapy. And this is where her collaborative approach to therapy begins helping each person build a stronger foundation of strength, greater self-esteem, and belief in self to make necessary changes.

A integral part of her therapy is providing a safe platform so people can tackle communication difficulties and challenges in their relationship and in life using two paths that consistently overlap.

One path is exploring the thoughts and feelings each person is experiencing and the other path is providing the skills and strategies needed for change to occur.

Dr. Davin is trained in Cognitive Behavior Therapy, which helps clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors intersect and influence one another. She also uses techniques inherent in Solution Focused Therapy and Emotional Focused Therapy and recognizes the importance that using an eclectic therapy approach allows her to meet each client where they are.

Dr. Davin works with individuals and is licensed in NY, NJ, FL, and CT and offers online teletherapy sessions in all four states. She is passionate about working people who are motivated, forward-thinking, and open-minded and want to take the steps to create the life they envision.

Message to clients

Are you tired of feeling like you are never good enough? Do you keep falling into one toxic relationship after another? Do you dream of a life where you can overcome challenges confidently?

Yet no matter how hard we try at times, we all face our fair share of challenges and curveballs. At times, it can seem like the world is crashing down on us. Because living purposefully doesn't magically happen overnight. It requires practice, dedication, and consistency.

Whether you’re navigating the complexities of toxic and codependent relationships, or finding yourself in a relationship with an emotionally immature partner, seeking to enhance your self-esteem, coping with major life transitions, or struggling with the impact of being raised by emotionally immature parents, my tailored approach is designed to meet you where you are

In our sessions, you will learn how to manage conflict, learn healthy modes of communication, gain valuable tools for overcoming codependent and unhealthy patterns, and cultivate a nourishing self-care practice for yourself. Therapy involves finding healthier ways to respond not react to obstacles, and creating new patterns in life. My collaborative approach to therapy is centered around meeting you where you are and tailoring our sessions to your unique path.

It takes a lot of courage to embark on this journey.
