How Kristin’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that align with those values. It helps with anxiety, avoidance, and decisions about relationships or sexuality by teaching simple practices to notice thoughts and act on what matters.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses short exercises and experiments to reduce unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills for stress, social anxiety, and mood concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristin will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That might mean emphasizing values work, communication exercises, or targeted skill practice depending on what a person needs.
The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, keep sessions shorter when needed, or avoid travel. Online work can also let someone practice real-time communication skills and try behavioral experiments between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises used in face-to-face care so they work in different settings and schedules.
