CBT, Mindfulness, and Motivational Support Online
Kristen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors. CBT sessions usually involve identifying thoughts that fuel anxiety or low mood and practicing new ways of responding to situations.She also teaches simple mindfulness techniques to reduce reactivity and increase awareness. Mindfulness can help someone feel less overwhelmed by stress and more able to notice choices in the moment.
Motivational interviewing is used when someone feels stuck about making a change. It focuses on the person’s own reasons for change and builds small, achievable steps to move forward.
Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and day-to-day life. This often means trying techniques and adjusting based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for deeper conversations, phone can be easier with limited bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help therapy fit into work, family, and other routines.
