About Kriss Light

Kriss Light practices from a Jungian depth perspective, speaking the language of Self, Shadow, Anima, Animus, and Individuation to help individuals explore the often-hidden parts of their inner life. She guides clients through a process of bringing unconscious material into awareness so that habitual projections onto others and the world can be recognized and gradually softened, supporting greater self-acceptance and inner calm.

Her work attends to the crossroads that life presents - loss, transitions, trauma, health challenges, and everyday stressors - by sorting through feelings, values, and what matters most to each person. Drawing on Depth Psychology, Kriss helps clients clarify their priorities and learn to trust the signs of their life even amid uncertainty.

Kriss blends Jungian studies and comparative religion with a creative sensibility shaped by her background as a musician. Her clinical methods include a range of approaches suited to trauma, relationships, and personality concerns, and she holds the credential LMFT, which denotes a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. She offers therapy for a wide spectrum of issues including stress, anxiety, grief, addictions, intimacy challenges, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and family concerns, and coping with life changes.
