Front Row Therapy LLC

Front Row Therapy embraces the idea that your life is your theatre, and you choose who sits closest to your stage. Those in the front row hold the most access, influence, and emotional investment. As seats move farther back, that access naturally decreases. Understanding this helps you decide how much space—mental, emotional, and relational—you want to give others.

In our work together, we explore your values, needs, and boundaries so you can confidently determine where people sit in your life and how you communicate those choices. At Front Row Therapy, we honor your role as the director of your own story. Our tagline, "Where Your Story Takes Center Stage", reflects our belief that you lead the process, set the pace, and guide the narrative.

You will be welcomed with acceptance, authenticity, and genuine connection. Here, your experiences are heard, respected, and held with care as you take your rightful place at the center of your own stage.

I'm Kristy Hansen, founder of Front Row Therapy, and I'm truly glad you're here. My path to this stage has been a meaningful one. About 11 years ago, while I was in counseling myself, I felt a strong pull to shift my career toward work that genuinely makes a difference in people's lives. That calling is what led me here—creating a space where your story can take center stage.

I strive to be authentic in every setting, especially in how I present myself and my work. I describe myself as real, welcoming, and colorful—yes, I even joke that I'm a bit of a unicorn. My therapeutic approach feels like a conversation in a comfortable living room: two people talking openly about experiences, challenges, and opportunities to process life's events. Life brings both triumphs and heartaches. In our time together, we honor both—celebrating your wins and exploring your losses with compassion, presence, and nonjudgment.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, self-worth challenges, life transitions, relationship concerns, grief and loss, and PTSD. I work with clients ages 14 and up, and I value working with veterans and couples as well.
