Therapeutic Tools That Translate Well Online

Kristen Templin draws from practical, research-informed approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building new coping strategies, which many people find useful when dealing with anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stress. Mindfulness Therapy helps clients practice noticing thoughts and emotions without getting overwhelmed by them, supporting steadier responses during difficult moments and major life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and a supportive therapeutic relationship, helping clients feel heard while they explore what matters most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kristen works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and current challenges, then adjusts the pace and focus of sessions over time. Therapy can be a space to clarify what is not working, strengthen what already helps, and choose next steps that feel realistic and meaningful.

Online therapy also offers flexibility. Sessions with Kristen can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into a busy schedule or maintain continuity during changing routines.
