Kristi Mitchell Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Personal Corporation

The healing journey starts with a single step.

Hey there, I’m Kristi.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Roseville, California, and I specialize in complex trauma, dissociation, and Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Whether you're here in person or connecting with me through telehealth, my work is focused on one thing: helping you feel safe enough in your own mind and body to heal.

Before I was a therapist, I spent 26 years in corporate America in financial services. It was a good career, but it wasn't the one I was meant to have. In 2021, I made the leap into counseling — and almost immediately, I found where I belonged: working with people and understanding their trauma. There's something about sitting with people in the hardest, most tender parts of their story that feels like exactly what I'm supposed to be doing.

I work with teens and adults navigating complex trauma, and I have a particular focus on supporting people living with dissociation and DID — populations that don't always find therapists who understand what they're carrying, or how to work with it safely.

My approach is trauma-informed and attachment-based. I integrate advanced, evidence-informed modalities — including Deep Brain Reorienting, Brainspotting, Induced After-Death Communication Therapy, and Hypnotherapy — to meet the nervous system where it actually lives, not just where our thoughts try to explain it. (You can read more about how each of these approaches works under my Counseling Services.)

I'm an empath, so don't be surprised if we laugh together, or if I tear up right alongside you. Laughter, especially, can be some of the most healing medicine there is. Above all, I want to help you rediscover the strengths that are already yours — the ones trauma may have buried, but never erased — so you can make the changes you're longing for.

If you're ready to talk, I'd love to hear from you.

  • What is Trauma Therapy?

    Trauma therapy is a specialized form of counseling that helps you process the impact of distressing experiences on your mental and emotional well-being. It gives you a confidential, safe space to work through what happened — and to understand the emotions and reactions that followed. A trauma-informed therapist helps you manage symptoms, build resilience, and start restoring your sense of emotional health. Think of it like physical therapy for the mind: a targeted way to heal old wounds so you can move through life with more ease.

  • How Brainspotting Therapy Helps Release Trauma

    Healing from childhood trauma starts with releasing the negative beliefs it left behind — and that's exactly what Brainspotting therapy is designed to do. This trauma treatment works with the brain and body together, helping you process painful memories instead of just talking through them. I've experienced that relief myself: using Brainspotting to work through my own trauma, and feeling the weight of it genuinely lift. If you're ready to let go of what you've been carrying, this could be your next step.

  • Everyone Is Welcome

    I specialize in treating complex trauma, including PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), anxiety, depression, and other conditions that make it hard to function day to day. If you're suffering, you don't have to keep carrying it alone. I offer a free consultation, along with safe, compassionate care tailored to you — whether that's ongoing weekly therapy sessions or a more intensive treatment plan designed to bring relief faster.
