Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kristin often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and EMDR in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and adjust unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps process and reduce the emotional impact of distressing memories.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kristin works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as healing progresses. Therapy moves at the client’s pace and remains responsive to their feedback.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to continue care from different locations within Tennessee, and to access consistent support when in-person visits are not practical. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to deliver meaningful, goal-focused work that supports progress over time.
