About Kristin
Kristin Danner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. She works with clients who are navigating LGBTQ issues and mood disorders. Kristin writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
Her approach centers on understanding how attachment and early relationships shape current patterns. She combines Attachment-Based ideas with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of relating.
Background and approach
Kristin also uses tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Kristin helps people set small, concrete goals and practices between sessions.
She uses motivational interviewing to explore readiness for change and solution-focused methods to identify what works now. People who feel stuck by past wounds or ongoing anxiety will find a steady, practical ally. Kristin encourages experimentation and learning rather than perfection.
She helps clients break big problems into manageable steps so progress feels possible. Kristin practices in Texas as an LCSW, and she values straightforward communication about treatment plans and next steps. She aims to help people build resilience, reduce overwhelm, and move toward a life that fits their values and relationships.
Approach and online options for anxiety and relationship care
Kristin uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. This approach helps people see why they react in certain ways and supports changes in how they connect with others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it is practical for anxiety and depression by breaking problems into manageable steps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean blending attachment work with CBT or adding emotion-regulation skills from DBT as needed, and adjustments can be made as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be a lower-bandwidth option, and messaging lets people check in between sessions or have brief check-ins. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum when facing anxiety or relationship stress.
