Guardian Lane

Kristina founded Guardian Lane in May 2020 and launched the platform in January 2021.1 The inspiration for Guardian Lane came from her personal experience:

• She lost her father to cancer when she was seven years old and struggled to find appropriate grief counseling.1
• While researching for her children's book "My Forever Guardian" in early 2020, she identified a lack of on-demand counseling for children.13

Guardian Lane innovates children's access to grief counseling by:

• Allowing children to watch, create, and share creative grief projects together.
• Offering one-on-one tele-counseling sessions with counselors.1
