About Kristin
Kristin Kenny is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. She also helps people facing grief, relationship conflict, parenting strain, and the aftereffects of trauma.
Her sessions are practical and conversational. Kristin uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She brings a client-centered stance that keeps each person’s goals and values at the center of the work.
Background and approach
Kristin blends strategies from dialectical behavior therapy when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to explore how early bonds can shape current relationship patterns. Mindfulness skills and trauma-informed thinking are woven into treatment when relevant.
Her aim is to help clients gain clearer perspective and build coping skills. Kristin focuses on small, usable steps that make daily life easier rather than abstract theory. She encourages self-exploration while offering structure and tools for managing symptoms.
Kristin’s background includes ten years of work with diverse adults and adolescents. She practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. Her approach is collaborative: she and the client set goals, try techniques, and adjust as progress is made.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people notice patterns that affect intimacy and trust. It often supports those dealing with relationship conflict, abandonment concerns, or attachment issues.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kristin will talk through your goals and preferences, try specific techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to find exercises and pacing that fit your needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls let you work face to face, phone sessions can fit a lunch break or low-bandwidth situation, and live chat or text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options let people maintain continuity of care and practice skills between sessions while fitting therapy into everyday life.
