About Kristin
Her practice emphasizes work with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship challenges, and addictions. Kristin's counseling style is warm, interactive, and encouraging; she approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and avoids stigmatizing labels.
Her clinical approach integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques with humanistic, person-centered, and psychodynamic perspectives to create tailored treatment plans. She also uses evidence-based methods such as mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused counseling to address specific goals and symptoms. Kristin partners with clients to identify clear treatment objectives and supports them as they take steps toward positive change.
Having engaged in treatment herself at times, she understands how difficult it can be to reach out for help and recognizes the barriers created by stigma and the navigation of care. Kristin values the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for effective therapy and encourages people to take the first step toward building a more satisfying, manageable life. She looks forward to working collaboratively with individuals seeking change.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used to address symptoms of depression and anxiety, to build coping strategies for life transitions, and to support recovery from addictive patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be helpful for people managing intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or impulsive behaviors.
Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings, which can reduce reactivity to stress and support calmer responses to grief, anxiety, and everyday pressures.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristin will work together with each person to explore which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adapt techniques as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes, reduce travel time, and allow clients to access licensed professionals from familiar environments.
