Kristen Hamm, LPC

Kristen Hamm is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress and anxiety along with related concerns like depression, self-esteem, and navigating life changes. Kristen aims to meet people where they are and offers a respectful, compassionate approach to care.

She tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs. Sessions emphasize practical steps to manage thoughts and emotions. Kristen helps people build confidence, increase motivation, and find more peace in their daily lives.

Her approach draws on simple, evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear goals and small, achievable steps toward them.

Kristen also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive environment where people feel heard and understood. She describes therapy as a collaborative process and works alongside clients to discover what helps most. The work can include improving communication, addressing codependency or abandonment issues, and reducing social anxiety.

Outside of practice, Kristen’s personal life and long marriage influenced her path into counseling. She supports people seeking clearer purpose, better relationships, and relief from persistent worry. If someone wants practical tools and steady support, Kristen aims to provide both.

Approaches that guide online work and what to expect

Kristen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT focuses on clear links between thinking, feeling, and acting, and it often includes practical exercises to try between sessions.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. ACT can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and finding a clearer sense of purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kristen will work with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. Sessions are collaborative, and plans are adjusted as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing sessions during work breaks or from different locations. Some formats need less video bandwidth or are useful for short check-ins, while others support longer conversations and in-depth skill building. Talk with the therapist to choose the session structure that best matches daily routines and therapeutic goals.
