More about Kristen
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LCMHC
I am licensed in North Carolina with 6 years of professional work experience as well as over 9 years as a K-12 school counselor. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & compassion fatigue.
My counseling approaches are typically brief solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques through individual and group counseling. I also utilize research of positive behavioral intervention to guide my work with children as well as aspects of play therapy. I have training within trauma focused interventions. I have led and co-led groups using mindfulness and grief therapy for adults and children. My counseling experience includes working with transient populations, immigrant populations, and the LGBTQA+ community. Throughout my background, I have worked and provided services to clients who have engaged in self-harm and suicidal ideation. I provide psychoeducation to support the mental health and growth of clients.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
