Kirstin has been married to her sweetheart, Chad, for 15 years where weekly date nights are still treasured time. They have 3 children: Drew (7), Ben (4), and Kyrie Anna (1) who “daily teach us the beauty of messy, grace-filled lives.” Kirstin greatly adds to the wealth of experience at Wyndhurst Counseling Center.
