Kristin Hassell, LMHC, LPC

Kristin Hassell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, grief, and jealousy. She speaks plainly and aims to create a calm, steady space where people can talk through what matters most. Her approach centers on practical skills and real-life changes rather than jargon or long lectures.

With nine years of experience, Kristin combines methods that focus on thoughts, values, and present-moment awareness. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for changing unhelpful thinking patterns and on mindfulness practices to reduce overwhelm. She also uses client-centered techniques to follow each person’s pace and priorities in sessions.

Kristin often addresses issues that affect daily life, such as parenting stress, workplace pressure, substance use concerns, and feeling isolated. She works with people dealing with trauma, mood challenges like bipolar symptoms, attention concerns, and complicated emotions around intimacy or control. She also supports those navigating multicultural or LGBT-related stress.

In sessions she teaches concrete coping tools, helps set realistic goals, and practices skills during the appointment when useful. Kristin favors collaboration and checks in about what methods are helping and what needs to change. She asks practical questions and sets small steps people can try between meetings.

People who want clear, down-to-earth help making life changes may find her style a good fit. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling before booking.

How Kristin’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and building actions that match personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) pinpoints unhelpful thoughts and habits, then teaches practical exercises to change thinking and behavior over time. Mindfulness Therapy trains present-moment awareness and simple attention practices to reduce overwhelm and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristin will talk with each person about goals, try methods that seem helpful, and adjust the plan based on what works. She encourages feedback and often combines tools from different approaches to fit the person’s needs and preferences.
