How Kristin’s approaches translate to online work

Kristin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and social anxiety by teaching concrete skills for managing moods and reactions.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them even when unpleasant thoughts or feelings appear. ACT can help with shame, addiction-related urges, and situations where motivation feels low.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristin discusses goals and preferences with each person and blends techniques that fit their situation. She works with clients to try methods, check what helps, and adjust the plan over time.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce commute time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people work on skills from places that suit their schedule. Licensed professionals often use these benefits to make therapy more practical and consistent with everyday life.
