Online sessions and therapeutic approach
Kristen offers remote sessions that emphasize a warm, interactive partnership. She draws on client-centered principles to create a respectful space where the person s values and goals guide the work. That stance supports collaborative goal setting and ongoing adjustments to the plan of care.
She often incorporates cognitive-behavioral techniques to help identify patterns of thought and behavior and to develop practical coping skills. Mindfulness-based elements are used to increase present-moment awareness and distress tolerance when appropriate. For those with histories of trauma, trauma-focused therapy techniques are available to address trauma-related symptoms with sensitivity.
Telehealth options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of communication methods is intended to allow flexibility in how sessions and between-session support occur while maintaining Kristen s emphasis on individualized, collaboratively developed treatment.
