About Kristen
LPCC in California with 13 years of experience, Kristen Corkum focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and depression. She works with people who are struggling with mood and attachment concerns and with those feeling isolated or stuck after difficult experiences. Sessions use practical talk and skill-building to address problems people bring in day to day.
Kristen blends Attachment-Based, Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavior, and Solution-Focused approaches. She uses these methods to clarify patterns of thinking and relating, teach coping skills, and set concrete short-term goals. Therapy aims to increase a person’s sense of choice and connection rather than rely on jargon or long, theoretical explanations.
Her background includes a master’s degree focused on mental health counseling and behavioral medicine from Boston University School of Medicine. The LPCC credential is listed as CA LPCC. Over more than a decade in treatment services she has worked in settings that included adolescents, young adults, groups, and individuals, bringing that range into session pacing and goal-setting.
In practical terms sessions balance talking through past hurts with building skills people can use right away. She pays attention to how life experiences affect self-view and relationships, and to whether those patterns help reach goals or hold someone back. Clients can expect collaborative planning, skill practice, and attention to what matters most now.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect mood and behavior. In practice this means talking about relationship history, noticing interaction patterns, and trying small changes to feel more connected and less reactive. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s perspective and priorities; sessions follow what the client brings and focus on support, reflection, and choices rather than a fixed agenda. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristen collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, symptoms, and everyday life. That might mean blending skills from CBT with DBT-style emotion tools, or using attachment-focused discussion alongside solution-focused steps to get quick, manageable changes.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy week and fewer travel needs. Because the site’s session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work still centers on clear goals, skill practice, and regular check-ins so therapy can be integrated into daily routines without requiring long waits or major schedule shifts.
