Remote sessions that use CBT, mindfulness, and collaborative strategies
Kristen offers online work that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy alongside Client-Centered and Motivational Interviewing techniques. In remote sessions she helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns with CBT, introduces mindfulness skills to increase present-moment awareness, and uses motivational interviewing to support exploration of change. These approaches are described and applied in clear, practical ways suited to each person’s concerns.
Clients who prefer a collaborative process may find this blended style helpful: Kristen centers the person’s goals, adapts tools from cognitive and mindfulness traditions, and uses motivational questioning when people are considering change. Online sessions focus on concrete steps, reflective work, and skill practice within the therapeutic conversation.
Remote appointments are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility in how people connect while using the listed clinical approaches.
