How her approaches fit online work
Kristina draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can improve anxiety and sleep through practical exercises and nightly routines. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in clarifying values and taking small steps toward a meaningful life even when uncomfortable feelings remain. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and collaboration so people feel heard and can set their own goals.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kristina works together with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning means sessions can shift over time as needs change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing for shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people choose a quieter time or place that lowers interruptions. Licensed professionals can use simple, practical tools during remote sessions such as guided mindfulness exercises, behavioral homework for sleep routines, and focused skill practice to support progress.
