About Kristen
She has nine years of professional experience and holds LCSW and CSW credentials. Kristen has a history of working with the military community and adults across a range of ages. In sessions she focuses on conversation plus concrete steps toward goals rather than vague talk alone.
Her style blends practical skills with attention to attachment patterns and values-based living. Clients can expect to talk through what gets in the way, learn small tools to manage strong emotions, and try experiments between sessions. She emphasizes collaboration and clear, shared goals.
Kristen uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral approaches, dialectical behavior ideas, attachment-based work, and a client-centered stance. Those methods inform how she helps people improve communication, cope with grief or trauma, and rebuild daily routines like sleep and self-care.
She practices in Colorado and conducts care in English. People interested in beginning therapy can use the platform Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Approaches that inform online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when anxiety or negative thoughts are present. It’s useful for stress, life changes, and motivation struggles.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape current reactions. This work can help with intimacy issues, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Kristen treats finding the right approach as a joint process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as progress and feedback guide the work.
If you want online care, confirm the specific session formats before booking because the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time so sessions are more practical. Therapists can teach emotion-regulation skills, values-based exercises, and communication practice that translate to everyday life without making promises about outcomes.
