How her approaches translate to online work
Kristin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and habits; CBT focuses on concrete tools like thought records and behavior experiments that can be practiced between sessions. She also draws on attachment-based methods to look at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and communication, which helps when the main problems involve trust or closeness. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance techniques for intense feelings and crisis moments.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristin will review goals and preferences with each person and adjust methods as therapy progresses. She aims to match techniques to the problem at hand and to the person's day-to-day life needs.
