About Kristi
Kristi Jefferson is a Florida licensed clinical social worker with three years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people build confidence, manage stress, and face anxiety. Kristi emphasizes strengths and motivation so clients can take concrete steps forward.
She believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths to hard moments. Kristi uses that perspective to help people find practical ways to move through challenges. Conversations are collaborative and down to earth, with an emphasis on small, useful changes that fit everyday life.
Background and approach
Kristi often works with concerns such as low self esteem, compassion fatigue, depression, relationship and family stress, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes. She also supports people navigating adoption and foster care issues, communication problems, self-love, and women's issues. Her style balances listening with problem-solving.
Sessions aim to identify clear goals, try new skills, and review what helps. This gives people tools they can use between meetings. Kristi offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. She encourages taking the first step and will work with each person to set a plan that fits their schedule and needs.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and building on what each person already knows about themselves; it helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through feelings and identify personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns. It works well for stress, anxious thinking, and low mood.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes and on what works now rather than dwelling on the past. This approach helps people set short-term goals and notice progress quickly.
Kristi treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will discuss options, try strategies together, and adjust plans based on what a person needs and prefers. This makes sessions more relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone works when internet bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging can fit into busy schedules for brief updates or reflections. These options make it easier to fit therapy into day-to-day life while using approaches tailored to individual concerns.
