Kristi Lewis , LMHC

Kristi Lewis is a Florida-licensed therapist who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her work with adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and challenges in relationships. She practices as an LMHC - a Licensed Mental Health Counselor - and centers her work on compassionate, evidence-informed methods that help people navigate complex emotional and life transitions.

Her approach combines practical skill building with empathic support to address workplace stress, difficult life changes, and barriers to personal growth. She emphasizes strategies that strengthen resilience, improve communication, and reduce the impact of past wounds so clients can move toward clearer goals and healthier interactions.

In sessions she creates a supportive atmosphere where clients can explore difficult feelings, process traumatic experiences, and develop tailored coping plans. Kristi collaborates with each person to identify strengths, set realistic objectives, and practice tools that promote emotional regulation and sustainable change. Her practice is grounded in respect, professional guidance, and a commitment to helping clients build greater self-understanding and well-being.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Kristi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT focuses on practical skills and homework-oriented techniques that can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and improve day-to-day functioning.

She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to support emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving communication in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Kristi works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best align with their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains focused and relevant to the client’s priorities.

Online sessions provide flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, continue care during transitions, and maintain regular contact with a licensed professional while working toward meaningful change.
