Kristin L. Perry, MA, MFT #48092 in Carlsbad Village holds California BBS license LMFT 48092 and provides individual, couples, adolescent, and child counseling from Roosevelt Street near the Carlsbad Farmers Market corridor. Seven years of direct work with at-risk adolescents in the Carlsbad Unified School District shaped the practice's teen-counseling methodology, a neurobehavioral approach that complements the cognitive-performance testing available at BrainCare Performance Center Carlsbad. A BA in philosophy from the University of California, Los Angeles, and a master of counseling degree from the University of Phoenix preceded additional clinical rotations through Palomar Family Counseling Services and a seven-year early-childhood education teaching career. The sub-specialization in international and domestic adoption counseling addresses attachment disruption, identity formation, and family-integration challenges, with somatic stress symptoms in adoptive families referred to musculoskeletal providers such as New Wave Chiropractic Center. Teen-focused treatment protocols integrate family-systems mapping with individual behavioral-activation techniques to address self-harm ideation, disordered eating, academic decline, and substance-experimentation patterns in adolescents aged twelve through eighteen.
