About Kristin

Kristin Crumbley is a licensed therapist in Florida who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, and life changes. She uses straightforward conversation to help parents and families identify practical steps. Her manner is warm and respectful, aimed at making difficult conversations feel manageable.

Kristin holds two licenses: Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). Kristin brings seven years of professional experience to sessions.

Background and approach

She combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, tailoring each plan to the situation at hand. In practice that means listening first, then helping people try new ways of thinking and small habit changes that can reduce tension and improve communication. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and simple tools clients can use between meetings.

Parents often come for help with parenting challenges, family problems, or shifts in roles after life changes. Kristin also addresses career stress and attention-related concerns such as ADHD by breaking problems into manageable steps. She pays attention to how relationships affect day-to-day life and offers ways to change patterns that cause repeated conflict.

Kristin frames therapy as a partnership. She encourages clients to set the pace and voice their priorities during treatment planning. Progress is reviewed regularly so plans can be adjusted to fit real life.

Sessions are offered in English and organized to fit each family’s schedule. Practical strategies, steady support, and clear next steps are central to her approach.

How Kristin Uses Talk-Based and Skill-Focused Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding first. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects concerns back, and helps people identify what matters most in family and parenting situations. This approach helps when someone needs a compassionate space to sort priorities and feel heard.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. It breaks problems into specific patterns and teaches small experiments and practical tools to change those patterns. CBT is useful for stress, anxiety, low mood, and for learning new ways to respond in tense family moments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Kristin collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily routines. She checks in on progress and adjusts plans so therapy stays useful and realistic for family life.

Online therapy offers flexibility that many parents need. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions can fit short windows, and live chat or text messaging give quick check-ins between appointments. These options make it easier to keep momentum, practice new skills in real time, and schedule sessions around family responsibilities.

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.
