About

Kristen Wilkinson, PsyD, is a UW Health licensed clinical psychologist in reproductive and women's health psychology.

Kristen treats female patients who are experiencing infertility (ability to become pregnant), mood concerns related to pregnancy or postpartum or other mental health concerns related to women’s health.

As a psychologist, she wants her patients to feel there is more to them than just their condition. When meeting a patient for the first time, she tries to learn as much about that person as possible. Kristen leans on the patient to tell their story instead of only relying on their chart history. She strives to involve her patients in all decisions about care and treatment.

Additionally, Kristen empowers her patients to express themselves and advocate for their needs. She promotes the importance of self-compassion. She provides guidance on self-care, helping her patients cultivate a positive self-image.

In her free time, Kristen enjoys spending time with her family, and if additional time allows, you might find her running on local trails, listening to an audiobook or dreaming about when she can plan her next trip to London, England, or the beach.

My hope for my patients is that they find hope, find their purpose, find their voice and learn how to advocate for themselves.
