How Kristin’s approaches translate to online work
Kristin uses client-centered methods that focus on what you want to address in therapy, keeping conversations guided by your priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around what matters most to them.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward living in line with those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool she uses to identify thoughts and behaviors that maintain distress, and to practice new, more helpful responses to stress and anxiety.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Kristin will work with you to select techniques that match your goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single method. That collaboration can include trying different strategies and adjusting the plan as things change.
Please confirm the current online session options before scheduling, since specific formats were not provided in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow for flexible scheduling around work, school, or caregiving. Some people prefer a shorter check-in by phone when bandwidth is limited, while others choose video when they want face-to-face interaction. Licensed professionals can help you pick the format that best fits your routine and goals.
