Professional, respectful, conscientious. Kristine asks pertinent questions that allow for more exploration of the issue and ways to address it, as well as helping suggest ways to work towards the goals I have set for myself. Highly recommended, I can only hope others will be fortunate enough to be assigned to her for therapy.

More about Kristine

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I am licensed mental health counselor in New York with more than 15 years of professional experience in psychotherapy in various outpatient clinical settings. I continue to work with clients of various ages with a wide range of concerns including depression & anxiety, high stress, college/life transition difficulties, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and ADHD management. I also work with many people who are or have experienced physical trauma &/or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive and meet clients where they are at. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, art, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our conversations and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs and personal goals.

I am aware of how difficult it can be to reach out for help. It takes courage to seek support from others and I hope to help you on your new journey towards a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are ready to take the first steps towards change, I am here to support and empower you at this time.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
