How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy

Kristy works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. That can mean teaching coping skills to ease anxiety and stress, such as breathing and grounding exercises or planning small behavioral steps to reduce overwhelm. It can also mean improving communication and problem solving for relationship and family concerns, with guided practice on clearer expression and setting boundaries.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristy partners with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as needed so therapy stays useful and manageable.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter times, avoid the commute, or use an audio-only option if video is difficult. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your life and needs.
