She also helps people navigate communication problems, control issues, infidelity, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness.
Sessions typically emphasize concrete tools and steady progress. Kristen uses motivational interviewing when people are weighing change or feeling stuck. The aim is to set realistic steps and track what does or does not help.

How her approaches guide online sessions
The client-centered approach centers the client's perspective and priorities. In practice that means sessions begin with Kristen listening to what matters most and shaping goals around the person sitting across from her. This approach helps when someone needs focused support for daily stressors or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going. Online sessions using CBT involve setting small experiments, tracking thoughts and activities between meetings, and practicing new reactions to anxiety or low mood. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and manage intense feelings. In remote sessions this can include guided breathing, brief grounding exercises, and learning how to notice thoughts without acting on them.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Kristen will work with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That may mean combining CBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing over several sessions and adjusting as progress is reviewed.

The focus is on practical ways to use therapy in ordinary life while testing what techniques help most.
