Background and approach

She also supports people dealing with ADHD, attachment wounds, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Her approach mixes cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness and trauma-focused work. Kristin may include elements of dialectical behavior strategies and EMDR when they fit a person’s needs.

Sessions emphasize validation, safety, and building skills that can be used between meetings. Kristin’s background includes surviving domestic violence and parental abuse, which shapes her sensitivity to trauma and power dynamics. She aims to help clients notice harmful family patterns and find personal strengths.

Her work often centers on creating internal safety for people who have experienced abuse. Therapy with Kristin is collaborative and paced to each person’s readiness. She helps clients set goals, practice new behaviors, and track small changes over time.

People who want straightforward, trauma-aware care often find this approach useful.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well online

Kristin commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR alongside mindfulness practices. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavior changes, which can reduce anxiety and improve daily routines. EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that helps process distressing memories and ease their emotional intensity; it can be used in sessions to work through past traumatic events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristin will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She typically begins with clear goals, then adjusts techniques based on what helps most in real life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different days and energy levels. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone calls can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or for people who prefer typing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other commitments.
