Hi. My name is Kristen McIntire. I am a certified Rehabilitation Counselor and Grief Counselor. Received my Masters in Rehabilitation Counseling in 2004 from the University of Pittsburgh. I have been working as a Transition Counselor in an Urban School District for 16 years, helping youth prepare for life after high school. I have also worked with youth over that time to learn to handle the struggles of adolescent life.
In 2016, I lost my husband of 12 years after a short battle with Neuroendocrine Cancer of the Pancreas. Since then, I have worked to become certified in grief counseling. I was trained through the Life Reentry Institute after utilizing their services for my own grief needs. I have a non-religious approach to grief and learning to live life fully after loss.
