Kristen Rios

Social Worker (Mental Health)

“Hi, I’m Kristen Rios and welcome to the Center of Resiliency! Our agency offers affordable, low-cost, telehealth/online therapy services. I’m accepting new clients: adults, couples, service members/veterans and military families.”

About Me

As Kristen Rios, I offer a warm, confidential space for adults, couples, and military families. I support you in navigating life's complexities, helping you build resilience. Online therapy means you can access care conveniently from your own home. This flexible approach is ideal for service members, veterans, and their loved ones. It also suits any adult seeking affordable mental health support tailored to their unique circumstances.

Approach

Welcome opens the door and I set a practical, steady pace—sessions focus on what matters now and on small steps you can try between meetings. I offer secure telehealth from Rancho Cucamonga with flexible scheduling to fit varied routines and time zones. We work with short experiential practices, cognitive reframes, and values-based choices to ease anxiety, cravings, grief, or burnout while tracking manageable wins. This approach suits people and families seeking straightforward, skills-focused support that fits real life.
