About Kristine

Kristine Savoury offers practical support for people juggling family stress and life changes. She speaks plainly and listens closely to help parents and caregivers sort through immediate concerns. Sessions focus on what matters now - safety, routines, and realistic next steps for daily life.

Savoury uses straightforward talk and problem-solving to guide people toward clearer choices. She leans on evidence-based tools to manage anxiety, mood changes, and substance-related concerns. She also addresses grief, burnout, and relationship strain that often affect family life.

Background and approach

With 14 years of experience and a Florida Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential - LCSW - she brings hands-on knowledge from healthcare and social work settings. That background informs how she helps people facing medical issues, caregiving stress, or major life transitions. Sessions aim to connect practical resources with steady emotional support.

Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to match each person’s needs. She draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-focused listening, and emotionally-focused strategies to build skills and improve communication. The work often includes setting small goals and practicing new ways of coping between sessions.

Her emphasis is on realistic change rather than quick fixes. People can expect clear feedback, tools to manage sleep, anger, or focus, and help planning steps for long-term wellbeing. The overall goal is to regain a sense of control and to move forward with more confidence.

How her approaches fit with online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships. It helps people understand how early connection styles influence reactions in family life and guides new ways to relate. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, sleep, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort. That process may mix listening, behavior-focused exercises, and emotion-focused steps over time to see what helps most.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. These options let people connect from home, manage therapy around caregiving or work, and use shorter check-ins when needed. The format makes it easier to practice skills between meetings and to bring real-life situations into conversations with a licensed professional.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
