Background and approach

The goal is to build small, workable changes that add up over time. Kristine brings 14 years of professional experience to her work in Vermont. She has helped people with depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, bipolar mood challenges, sleep problems, and trauma and abuse.

She also supports those dealing with career questions, life transitions, and issues around control and self-love. Therapy sessions are collaborative. She listens for strengths and then helps create a plan that fits each person's life and goals.

People can expect clear, practical suggestions alongside reflective conversation. Her approach balances emotional understanding with concrete habits - improving sleep, adjusting routines, and planning next steps. The aim is a better daily life, not just symptoms on a chart.

Kristine encourages steady progress toward greater confidence and life satisfaction.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Kristine draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what helps most in daily life. One approach emphasizes person-centered work where sessions begin with the client’s priorities and strengths; this helps when someone needs support making concrete changes without losing their sense of self. Another approach looks at routines and behavior - sleep, activity, and patterns that keep stress and anxiety active - and uses small habit changes to improve mood and functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She works together with each person to decide which methods match their goals, comfort level, and real-world constraints. That collaborative planning is revisited as needs shift over time.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows a fuller conversation when people prefer face-to-face contact. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a busy schedule. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick thoughts, ongoing support between sessions, and people who prefer writing. These formats increase flexibility and make regular care easier to fit into life.
