About Kristin Reinhart
Kristin Reinhart is a Registered Social Worker with a Masters degree in social work, certified in Eye Movement Integration (EMI) therapy, and has been working in the field of mental health since 2006. She developed a passion for perinatal mental health after a lived Neonatal Intensive Care experience following the birth of both of her daughters, which made her acutely aware of the need for adequate and timely support for women during the perinatal period.
She uses a collection of mindfulness cognitive behavioural therapy, somatic experiences and narrative approaches to cultivate a space where you safely enter your life story to explore present and past areas of pain that contribute to undesired thoughts, behaviours and relational struggles in the perinatal period. She has advanced training through Postpartum Support International (PSI), is committed to reducing stigma, isolation and shame around perinatal mental health, and volunteers as a PSI coordinator offering peer support, resources and a sense of hope to families.
Kristin was born and raised in a small, rural Saskatchewan city where she lives with her husband and two daughters. An introvert and an enneagram 4, she loves anything peaceful and cozy, thrives on connection, and loves making others feel safe, welcomed and accepted in her presence.
