About Kristin Kenny

Kristin Kenny is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience. She has helped adults and adolescents from diverse cultural backgrounds navigate depression, trauma, anxiety, and mood disorders, as well as grief, relationship conflict, and work or school stressors.

Her therapeutic work rests on a foundation of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) while integrating a person-centered approach that prioritizes each client’s perspective. Kristin supplements these core methods with dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), psychodynamic techniques, trauma-focused CBT, and mindfulness practices when they align with a client’s needs.

Kristin’s aim is to support clients in gaining fresh perspectives, building practical coping skills, and challenging unhelpful beliefs that stand in the way of healthier functioning. She views self-exploration as central to meaningful growth and acts as a steady guide through the therapeutic process, recognizing how challenging it can be to seek support.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kristin primarily draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability. She also uses a client-centered approach that emphasizes empathy, active listening, and working from the client’s own goals to build trust and clarity in therapy. When emotional regulation and distress tolerance are central concerns, Kristin incorporates dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills to teach breathing, grounding, and interpersonal techniques that support stability and healthier relationships.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Kristin will work with each person to evaluate their needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods as therapy progresses to find the best fit for meaningful change.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or work and to maintain consistent care during life transitions.
