Trailblazer & Therapist
Licensed registered psychotherapist, MSW
Kris Ferguson
Kris solidified the foundation to become a catalyst for change when she graduated with her Masters in Social Work from New York University. After completing internships at both Harlem Hospital and Manhattan Mental Health Center, she and her young family moved to the Roaring Fork Valley and never looked back! Kris went on to work in the Aspen Counseling Center’s Intensive Outpatient Program and then with at-risk adolescents in the Diversion Program.
Kris discovered hiking as her own powerful form of therapy and mental health maintenance. Now that her three children have flown the coop, Kris is hitting the trail with great enthusiasm and commitment to help others become the best version of themselves.
Kris is available to provide guided Walk and Talk therapy sessions anywhere from Aspen through Carbondale. She specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, working with Families and Friends of Alcoholics, and loves partnering with motivated clients to move their lives forward.
When she slows down, Kris enjoys volunteering at the Aspen Thrift Shop and doing yoga.
Client Testimonials
Trailtalk normalizes therapy and everyone’s basic human need for help, by taking you into a casual, outdoor setting that is much more conducive to a conversation. Seriously, have you ever tried seeking help from someone who is sitting on a couch or chair and all you get is a clinical stare and note scribbling? This is so different. These people literally walk beside you and help you to find answers to your own problems. They listen and ask questions in the way a good friend would, except, they still hold you accountable and you still have to do the work. I think one of the things I find appealing, too, is that this approach puts you on par with the person helping you and you don’t feel like you are being put under a microscope. You are physically doing something outside and having introspective thought and conversation with some awesome and thoughtful people. It is a wonderful approach.
