Kristi Lindley, LPC

Kristi Lindley is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 26 years of experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and other life challenges. She focuses on issues such as relationships, family concerns, eating and body image, addictions, grief, anger, self-esteem, and mood conditions. Kristi aims to make the first step feel less daunting by offering steady support and a nonjudgmental presence.

Her sessions are warm and interactive. She encourages honest conversation and listens with sensitivity and respect. People can expect a space where thoughts and feelings are spoken about plainly and without labels.

Kristi draws on several practical therapy methods. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns. She also employs client-centered and solution-focused ideas to keep conversations grounded in the client’s goals and strengths.

Mindfulness practices and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas appear in her work to help people tolerate difficult emotions and stay connected to what matters. The approach is tailored to each person, not one-size-fits-all, and focuses on steps that fit daily life.

She works from Mississippi and offers services in English. Kristi supports people through changes like separation, blended family challenges, fertility concerns, first responder stress, and recovery from substance use and domestic violence. If someone is ready to begin, she welcomes a collaborative first conversation to set practical goals.

How Kristi’s approaches inform online care

Kristi integrates cognitive behavioral ideas to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns and focuses on practical exercises and homework to build new habits.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) ideas and client-centered techniques. ACT helps people notice difficult feelings and act in line with their values. Client-centered methods prioritize listening and shaping the work around each person's goals and pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit best based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust over time in collaboration with the client.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use techniques and worksheets between meetings so progress continues between sessions.
