About Kriste

A little context to help you feel the person behind the work.

As a heart-centered empath, I teach love and compassion along the way, and I model living from my truth.

My life has been a journey of learning to show up as my most authentic self -  from my essence, my truth, my heart. And perhaps even more importantly, about learning to be comfortable being that! It hasn't been easy to fully embody or embrace these practices in a world that doesn't seem to value sensitivity and authenticity.

Perhaps you can relate? Or you are desiring or hungry for more connection? As I've learned, true connection comes from our very own heart space. I've had to find my way there. This has been my journey "home".

And now, as I grow and expand into more of my truths and who I am, I am passionate about helping others find the same.

With the MAP Method technique, I have found peace. In the past, I would trigger easily. Although I had the awareness of what caused these triggers, I didn't know or have the tools to quiet them or have them not reoccur. MAP has helped me to diminish these triggers and thought patterns. Three-day triggers or a full-blown trigger leading into depression for six months just does not happen any more.

If you are on my page, there is a deeper calling and a knowing that you desire to be healed and to take the reins into your own hands. Let me guide you!

What Clients Love About Kriste's Work

A few words from people who've experienced their work. (Individual results may vary)

For years I have been terrified of snakes. I couldn’t say the word let alone look at a picture or worse yet, see one in person. All of my close family and friends knew this about me and would just say “S” when they would come slithering into conversation. 

My experience with Kriste in only a couple of MAP sessions had taken my fear of snakes from a 10 to a 1 or 2! I’m not ready to own a pet snake, but my fear level when I am talking about them or seeing a picture of them is practically gone. Kriste helped me to get back to something I love - hiking in the hills of Marin!

Jen M.
Project Manager

"Kriste is a naturally gifted coach. She possesses a deep and natural wisdom, intuition and empathy that she leans into as she guides her clients through a process that is gentle, yet powerful.

In working with her, I felt safe, heard and cared for while experiencing some of the most immediate and embodied shifts that previously, I had struggled for decades to resolve in therapy. I cannot recommend Kriste more highly!"

 

Kristin T.
Life & Executive Coach

"I highly recommend working with Kriste! She is a fantastic person and extremely knowledgeable and efficient at helping others through the facilitation of her work. She has the awareness to connect, hold the proper space, and evolve people towards their own intuitive goals. The MAP technique is not about learning new information, but the assimilation of the information we hold onto as our truth. The MAP technique supports the proper context with how we categorize our experiences and can deepen our relationship with ourselves and all aspects of life. Kriste utilizes these deep understandings with her clients to propel them into a place of more fulfillment."

 

Dr. Matthew E.,
Chiropractor

"I had several weekly MAP sessions with Kriste and I highly recommend her. I was amazed after each experience. All the feelings that arose so quickly and morphed and uncovered, revealing how each issue’s emotions are stacked inside us like a totem pole. Carefully unwinding the threads that hold it all together is her superpower. But surprisingly never feeling in pieces or un-done after. Kriste has a natural ability to zero in deep inside, gently, leading you through the incredible maze that we are, always bringing something out into the open and neutralizing it with her ease of compassionate space holding along with this very structured formula of Mapping. Kriste is your guide bridging the inner with the outer, eliminating your blind spots. You can 100% trust her."
