Kristin Money

Kristin Money is a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee who brings 12 years of clinical experience to individual therapy. She earned a Master of Education with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling in 2013 and holds a Tennessee professional counseling license with Mental Health Service Provider designation (TN LPC 4633).

Her personal background includes surviving domestic violence and parental abuse, and she has been providing individual counseling since 2012. Kristin’s approach centers on empathetic, validating care for each person while also attending to the effects of systematic oppression on clients and their communities.

Kristin is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and offers gender-accepting and affirming care. She identifies as neurodivergent and provides therapy from a secular perspective, meaning she does not practice with a religious influence. She welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

She is trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and a range of trauma-informed techniques, which she integrates into an eclectic therapy style. Former clients have told her that she listens closely and is highly sensitive to their concerns.

Kristin focuses on helping people reduce trauma symptoms, recognize harmful family patterns, and uncover individual strengths. Her niche is supporting neurodivergent people who have experienced abuse to cultivate a stronger sense of self and build inner safety. Therapy proceeds at the client’s pace, with the understanding that healing does not follow a set timeline.

Per state licensing regulations, Kristin can only provide services to residents who are physically located in Tennessee. This means services cannot begin if a person is temporarily out of state. She notes that BetterHelp is not a crisis platform or a replacement for crisis services.
