Kersten Chisti Dryden

Are you seeking clarity on your life path? I help you envision the big picture and break it down into meaningful, achievable steps. Whether navigating career transitions, discovering your true calling, or setting goals, together we’ll chart a path aligned with your deepest values and aspirations.

Our connections with ourselves and others shape every part of life. I support clients in strengthening friendships, healing family dynamics, deepening self-compassion, and opening space to welcome love and belonging.

Health is more than the absence of illness, it’s balance across all dimensions of life. Using a holistic framework, we’ll explore the eight dimensions of wellness: emotional, environmental, financial, intellectual, occupational, physical, social, and spiritual. Together, we’ll identify what’s out of balance and create simple, lasting strategies for vitality.

Do you want more energy, resilience, or joy in your body? I guide clients through sustainable changes in lifestyle, nutrition, and physical well-being. We’ll start with small, realistic steps that build confidence and momentum. For those ready to quit tobacco, I am a nationally certified Tobacco Treatment Specialist, and also a former smoker. I provide judgment-free support that honors your own pace and goals.

In our fast-paced world, learning to regulate stress is essential. I offer evidence-based techniques to calm the nervous system, improve sleep, restore balance, and increase emotional freedom. These practices

not only relieve anxiety but also strengthen your sense of dignity, integrity, and choice in how you respond to life’s challenges. We'll explore trauma-informed emotion regulation that speaks to your spirit, whether that be through music and sound healing, spending time in nature or with horses, through yoga and meditation, or other personalized pathways.

Facing the end of life, whether your own or a loved one’s, is both tender and profound. I create a safe, compassionate space to explore meaning, reflect on legacy, and nurture creativity and connection. Together, we can ease fear and anxiety while honoring your final wishes and the life you’ve lived. Every moment holds the possibility for transformation, acceptance, and peace.
