Success Story
"After a gastric band surgery in 2022 I had lost over 70 lbs.. everyone was telling me how great I looked but when I looked into the mirror all I saw was still that fat body. It was like my self-image was deeply ingrained in my brain. Kristin has helped me to hit a reset button and I am finally able to be proud of what I have achieved. It took 2 sessions and I am so thankful." - Maria H. - client 2023
