About Kristen
Kristen Barrett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. She draws on five years of clinical experience to help people manage anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. Her style is upbeat and supportive, focused on practical steps clients can use in daily life.
Kristen has worked in settings that include in-home care, hospitals, personal offices, and outpatient day programs. That variety shaped her ability to adjust methods for different needs and situations.
Background and approach
She has experience with ADHD, low self-esteem, family and relationship conflict, grief, trauma, and issues tied to identity including LGBT concerns. In sessions she creates a welcoming, non-judgmental space where people can talk honestly about hard things. She starts where each person is and builds goals together.
Her approach blends person-centered care with practical, skills-based methods so conversations lead to real changes. Kristen often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help spot patterns that keep problems alive. She also uses mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to build coping skills and small forward steps.
This mix helps people reduce reactivity, manage strong emotions like anger, and feel more in control of daily life. Clients can expect direct collaboration on goals and concrete tools to try between sessions. Kristen aims to make the process clear and manageable so taking the first step feels less overwhelming.
She welcomes questions about how therapy might fit into someone’s routine.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Kristen commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors to break cycles of anxiety, depression, or anger. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and help people notice feelings before they escalate.Finding the right approach is part of the early work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and daily life. That might mean focusing on skill practice one week and setting small measurable steps the next. The plan is adjusted as progress unfolds and as priorities change.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels most helpful. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send quick updates, practice skills between sessions, or check in on hard days. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and varied routines.
