Kristal Morfa

Hey there! I’m a therapist-in-training currently pursuing my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling at Yeshiva University. I’m drawn to working with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, chronic pain, grief, life/career transitions, relationship issues and the nuanced experience of being a first- or second-generation immigrant. I also love supporting sensitive, creative, and self-aware people who are searching for clarity, meaning, and a deeper connection to themselves.

My approach is rooted in person-centered and psychodynamic traditions, with influences from Adlerian and mindfulness-based perspectives. That means we’ll gently explore your past and patterns with care while also honoring the strengths and inner wisdom you already carry. Healing isn’t linear, and therapy shouldn’t be rushed. Together, we’ll explore what your relationship to healing truly is - at your own pace. In our sessions, you can expect me to bring warmth, deep empathy and a little humor.

As a lifelong creative, I see people as layered and evolving - ever-changing works of art. I’m bilingual (Spanish/English), deeply spiritual, and endlessly fascinated by how people adapt and grow through adversity. I believe therapy is one of the most powerful ways to come home to yourself. I’d be honored to witness your journey and walk alongside you.
