Online support
Evidence-based techniques and online therapy options
Kristen primarily uses cognitive behavioral approaches that focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. This method helps people notice automatic thoughts, test them, and try new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, or low mood. She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help clients become more aware of physical sensations and emotional states without immediately reacting, which can be useful for managing anxiety, rumination, and distress.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Kristen works with each person to find methods that fit their goals and daily life. Together they try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needs change so therapy stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and preferences. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging let people check in quickly, do shorter check-ins, or continue work between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and allow consistent contact even when in-person visits aren’t possible.
