My Story
Â
Hi, I'm Kresenya!Â
I’m from Gilbert, Arizona and love being outside, paddle boarding, reading, and spending time with my family. I went to school at Arizona State University and got my degree in psychology.
While I was in college, relationship anxiety hit me really hard. I was dating the guy who would one day become my husband, but it was a really rocky relationship with lots of ups and downs (but mostly downs) because of my anxiety. I cried almost every day.
For a long time, I thought my anxiety was trying to tell me something. If I felt uneasy, I thought it was a sign. If I didn’t feel peace, I thought it meant I was making the wrong choice.
Doubts I Had
I believed that my doubts meant something was wrong with my relationship. I tried everything I could to figure it out, but no amount of overthinking ever gave me the certainty I craved.

How I Healed
Â
With time and an amazing coach, I learned that relationship anxiety isn’t really about your relationship—it’s about your brain. When your brain is stuck in fight-or-flight, no amount of logic can convince you you're in the right relationship. Healing comes when you teach it that you’re safe.
Love is something we get to choose, and safety is something we can create. The more I chose love instead of fear, the more clarity and freedom I found.
Now, I coach young adults who feel trapped in the same cycle of doubt and overthinking. Together, we work on calming fear, choosing love, and building relationships filled with confidence and peace
