She holds a Master of Arts in Counseling and is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas - a credential that denotes advanced training and supervised clinical experience.

Over the course of her career she has focused on supporting people through life changes such as divorce, work-related stress, and mood-related challenges including depression and anxiety. She has spent years working in hospital settings and values regular, direct client contact to keep her clinical skills engaged. Kristin frequently collaborates with psychiatrists, primary care providers, and social service agencies when coordinated care is useful.

Kristin specializes in working with adolescents and adults ages 14 and up and has extensive experience assisting those who have experienced trauma. Her therapeutic lens blends Adlerian ideas with person-centered and holistic principles, viewing each client as the expert in their life while she provides guidance for healing, interpersonal change, and rediscovering a fulfilling sense of self.

Client-Centered and CBT Support Delivered Online

Kristin draws on client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people access their own strengths to navigate relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - which helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress, and then teaches practical strategies to shift those patterns. Mindfulness therapy is another tool she integrates to help clients build present-moment awareness and learn simple skills for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative part of therapy. Kristin works with each person to choose or combine methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for scheduling and for fitting therapy into busy lives. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to continue care during transitions, so clients can focus on consistent progress with licensed professionals and therapists who support their goals.
