Approaches Kristin names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Kristin blends practical and depth-oriented therapies to address real problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, low mood, and disruptive habits. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and past experiences that shape current relationships and emotional reactions, helping people gain lasting insight.

Choosing the right approach happens together. Kristin will talk about goals, try a few strategies, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process helps match techniques to each person’s needs and preferences over time.

Online formats make regular work possible in ways that fit a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions or shorter live chat check-ins can fit into a work break or a hectic day. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help maintain continuity of care and flexibility while focusing on meaningful progress.
