About Kristen

Kristen Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She aims to help people regain a sense of control in daily life and build toward a healthier future. Kristen speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on everyday steps that make a difference.

She uses approaches that emphasize the client’s goals and strengths. Kristen blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and try different responses.

Background and approach

She also uses mindfulness practices to reduce stress and Solution-Focused ideas to set short-term, achievable goals. Kristen has five years of clinical experience and works with concerns like stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She also supports people facing family and parenting challenges, blended family issues, and the effects of chronic pain, illness, or disability.

Divorce, separation, panic attacks, and women’s issues are other focus areas she addresses. In sessions she aims for clear, manageable steps. That can mean shifting unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing grounding exercises, or planning small behavior changes at home.

Kristen prefers methods that clients can use between meetings to see steady progress. Kristen practices in Michigan and holds the LPC credential. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through a variety of online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building on what matters to the person. The therapist offers empathy and support, and helps clients decide what goals feel most meaningful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and experiment with different behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about options, try strategies together, and adjust methods based on the client’s goals and preferences. That teamwork helps tailor short-term plans and practical skills that can be used between sessions.

Online therapy offers several ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and allow follow-up between meetings. Many people find the flexibility helpful when balancing parenting, work, and health needs.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
