Kristy draws from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed practices, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. These methods allow Kristy to tailor her approach to each client’s unique needs, whether that involves reframing negative thought patterns, building new coping skills, processing past trauma, or making lasting behavioral changes.
Clients can expect sessions with Kristy to include a mix of discussions, activities, handouts, and practical strategies to help clients apply insights to daily life. She strongly encourages active participation, as she believes your personal expertise and feedback are integral to the process. Together, you will set collaborative goals to guide your progress and adjust the approach as needed to ensure the therapy is best suited to your learning style and evolving needs.
