Kristin White, LPC - Therapist in Pennsylvania

About Kristin

Kristin White is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She uses straightforward, practical methods to help clients manage intense feelings and find clearer ways to cope. The first conversations are calm and plainspoken, aimed at understanding immediate needs and setting small, achievable goals.

Kristin has 12 years of experience as an LPC in Pennsylvania. Over that time she has worked with people dealing with post-traumatic stress and those who struggle with self-harm.

Background and approach

She draws on evidence-based tools to reduce distress and build skills that people can use outside of sessions. Her main approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Kristin explains each option in simple terms and tailors methods to what feels most useful for each person.

She balances practical skills training with space to process painful memories. Sessions can include short-term strategies for stress management as well as longer work to address trauma and life transitions. Kristin aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where progress is measured in small steps.

Many clients notice clearer thinking and better emotion control after working together. Therapy with Kristin is offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. The process begins with a brief questionnaire and scheduling, and the plan is adjusted as needs and goals evolve.

How Kristin’s Trauma-Informed Approaches Work Online

Kristin uses approaches that are practical and focused on what helps people feel steadier day to day. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety and manage mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, helps people process distressing memories by combining focused memory work with specific bilateral stimulation to lessen emotional intensity.

She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy, which centers on understanding the impact of traumatic experiences and building safety, coping skills, and gradual processing at a pace set by the client. Choosing which approach to use is a shared decision. Kristin will talk through options, consider goals and comfort, and adjust methods as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. These formats make it easier to work together from home, to follow up between sessions, and to use the method that feels most accessible. Kristin emphasizes flexibility so the work can continue even when life is busy.

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.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.

Trauma-Focused Therapy

Work that takes difficult past experience into account and moves at a pace you set, with attention to feeling steady before anything else. Being in your own space can make that easier for some people.
