Kvitova's opponent in Saturday's final will be Romania's Simona Halep, who upset four-times New Haven Open winner Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark 6-2 7-5.
"I don't think I've played Simona before," said Kvitova. "I know that she's a very good mover."
For Kvitova, who won Wimbledon in 2011, Saturday's final provides her with the chance to claim her 11th career title and her second this year.
The 23-year-old had struggled in her previous matches so was relieved to get through quickly against her compatriot.
"It was nice to finally have a two-setter," she said.
"I was asked in a press conference this week if I prefer shorter matches. And I said, 'Of course, I prefer shorter matches but it's not always up to me!'"
