About Kristin

Kristin Money is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with 12 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and parenting strains, anger, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Kristin affirms LGBTQIA+ identities and describes her practice as secular and neurodiversity-affirming.

Kristin draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, and solution-focused methods to shape sessions. She says she mixes trauma-informed techniques to match where a person is and what they need. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on uncovering trauma, noticing harmful family patterns, and finding personal strengths.

Her lived experience includes surviving domestic violence and parental abuse, and she references that background when supporting people who have had similar experiences. Kristin notes a niche working with neurodivergent people who have experienced abuse and who want to build a stronger sense of self and inner safety. She aims to be attentive and responsive to individual needs while acknowledging broader social influences.

Kristin practices only with people who are physically located in Tennessee, in line with state licensing rules. She uses a subscription-based service model where sessions can be canceled at any time and asks prospective clients to follow the platform’s onboarding steps to begin.

She offers counseling from a secular perspective and welcomes people from varied backgrounds. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking by completing the initial matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

How Kristin uses therapy approaches online

Kristin commonly draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and guilt. EMDR is used to process traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided eye movement or other bilateral stimulation to reduce the intensity of distress linked to those memories. DBT teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for anger, relationship struggles, and emotion regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kristin will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest methods that fit. She emphasizes collaboration, adjusting techniques over time if something isn’t working or if needs change.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking through the platform. The platform’s process asks new clients to complete a matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions can happen between errands, work breaks, or parenting tasks.
