About Kirsten
With eight years of clinical experience in Nebraska and the Midwest, Kirsten blends approaches to match what each person needs. She uses client-centered listening to hear what matters most, then brings in tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. Mindfulness and narrative work are also part of her toolbox for coping and perspective shifts.
Clients can expect an approach that is respectful and goal oriented. Kirsten helps set clear, personalized goals and offers practical strategies for managing emotions, improving communication, and handling life changes. She mentions school-related behavior and parenting concerns among issues she commonly addresses.
Her style is collaborative - she works with people to try ideas and adjust them based on real results. Progress is measured by small changes that add up, such as fewer panic episodes, clearer boundaries, or calmer responses to stress.
Kirsten invites people to take the first step and begin building skills that support daily life and long-term well-being.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns, and helps set goals that feel meaningful. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers concrete steps to change patterns that keep problems like anxiety or low mood active. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and for improving how someone copes in stressful moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit best for their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies together, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.
The original biography did not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and making it simpler to meet during work breaks or between errands. Licensed professionals can still use interactive exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices that translate well to remote sessions, and the focus remains on practical skills and steady progress.
