About Kristin
Kristin Money is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with 12 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, coping with life changes, relationships, parenting, anger, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Kristin writes plainly and directly about hard experiences, and she identifies as LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent.
Kristin draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside dialectical and trauma-focused methods to help people notice patterns that keep problems going. She uses practical skills work, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused steps to reduce overwhelm and make day-to-day coping more manageable. Sessions move at each person’s pace rather than on a fixed timeline.
Her background includes surviving domestic violence and parental abuse, and she has been providing individual counseling since 2012. That experience shapes how she listens for family patterns, trauma responses, and strengths that people can build on. She offers secular, nonreligious counseling and affirms LGBTQIA+ identities.
Kristin often helps people who are neurodivergent and who have histories of abuse to develop a stronger sense of self and inner stability. She works with common themes such as abandonment, attachment problems, codependency, guilt and shame, body image, and isolation. Practical skill-building and trauma processing are part of her approach.
Per Tennessee licensing rules, she practices only with people who physically reside in Tennessee. Before booking, confirm session formats and any logistical details through the platform’s sign-up steps.
How CBT, DBT and EMDR are used in online sessions
Kristin integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and EMDR into an approach that focuses on concrete skills and trauma processing. CBT helps people track thoughts and test small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. DBT provides clear skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. EMDR is used as a trauma-focused tool to address distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Finding the right mix of these approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and personal preferences and then recommend which methods to try first. Clients and the therapist adjust the plan over time based on how the work is progressing. Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy schedules and attending from a familiar setting to make practice between sessions easier. Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since the biography does not list exact options. Discussing session length, pacing, and any brief between-session exercises can make online sessions feel concrete and focused without promising any particular service.Areas of expertise
