Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Kristin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical coping and recovery. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches breathing, grounding, and emotion-regulation strategies to reduce anxiety and manage panic. These are short exercises people can practice between sessions to gain quick relief.She also uses trauma-informed methods that help people safely process difficult memories and responses. This approach emphasizes pacing, safety, and building coping skills so memories feel less overwhelming. It is useful for post-traumatic stress and reactions to abuse.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristin talks with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they try methods that fit the person’s life and adjust as progress is made.
Online therapy offers a flexible way to work on these techniques. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports short check-ins, and text messaging is useful for quick reflections between appointments. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and other responsibilities.
