About Kristi
Kristi Meade is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and substance-related struggles. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and to create a calm space where people can talk about what matters to them. She brings six years of professional experience, including time in a crisis stabilization unit for mental health and substance use.
That background means she is familiar with urgent emotional moments and with the ways addiction and mood concerns can overlap.
Background and approach
Kristi uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She listens first, then helps people build practical skills to handle strong emotions. Clients can expect clear strategies for coping, building confidence, and improving sleep and daily routine.
Her work includes support for mood disorders like depression and bipolar, attention-related concerns such as ADHD, and relationship or communication problems. She also addresses grief, trauma, and challenges tied to major life changes. Sessions combine talk-based guidance with tools from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness practices.
Kristi emphasizes small, doable steps so change feels achievable over time. Kristi sees clients in Georgia and offers sessions in English. She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

Approach and online options for managing difficult emotions
Kristi commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger.She also draws on client-centered and mindfulness-based methods to keep sessions grounded in the person’s priorities. Finding the right blend of methods is a collaborative process. Kristi will work with each person to test approaches, adjust techniques, and set goals that fit their life and what they want to change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people keep progress going between calls or fit support into a busy day. These formats help people access consistent care while balancing work, family, and other obligations.
