We all have experienced times when life seems challenging. Whether it be a period of transition, ongoing struggles with mental wellness or a loss that can seem overwhelming. Or maybe you are struggling with the current times, that can find us in a world that might not feel very stable or safe. Routines have been interrupted, financial stressors have been amplified, and health/livelihood are being questioned. You don’t have to go through these times alone. And in these moments, you might benefit by chatting with a counselor. And that’s where I come into play.
I am an experienced therapist that assists others that are wanting to change old patterns in order to create growth and change. I specialize in working with adults in the following areas: LGBTQ+, anxiety, depression, chronic medical conditions (to include HIV), grief/loss and trauma. I use a combination of skills and interventions to foster resiliency and empower clients to reach their individualized goals. I believe in a holistic approach (mind and body connection) and utilize mindfulness interventions to help clients be present and grounded. I believe it’s important to understand how our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are all interconnected.
Therapy is an authentic and secure connection between the client and therapist. It consists of a space of safety, respect and acceptance between both entities. The therapeutic process can consist of only a few sessions to address immediate concerns (or to get a tune-up as I call it) or it can be extended to address long standing patterns. The first (and sometimes hardest) step is to send me an email to initiate services. I look forward to working alongside you.
Additional areas of focus:Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Anger management, Self esteem, Career difficulties, Coping with life changes, Adoption and Foster Care, Cancer, Caregiver Issues and Stress, Chronic Pain Illness and Disability, Commitment Issues, Communication Problems, Coping with Natural or Human-Caused Disaster, Emptiness, Fertility Issues, Forgiveness, Gender Dysphoria, Guilt and Shame, HIV / AIDS, Immigration Issues, Isolation / Loneliness, Life Purpose, Narcissism, Polyamory / Nonmonogamous Relationships, Self-Love, Sexual Assault and Abuse, Social Anxiety and Phobia, Women's Issues, Workplace Issues, Young Adult Issues
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Kristin Thompson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Kristin is a kind, concerned, profesional therapist. She has a way of opening your mind to really see and understand your needs and start working towards meeting them.

Kristin has been the best therapist I have ever connected with on and off this app over several years. I’ve had some good, some bad, but she’s finally been the one I feel I’ve really connected with. I feel I have made a lot of progress emotionally as well as in my relationships with others with her assistance. I am setting and working towards my goals with her guidance. I have never felt an ounce of negative judgement from her. She asks me clarifying questions and centers me back to solution oriented thinking the times I have been on a tangent or having difficulty expressing my feelings. She is very open minded and full of resources she recommends. There is a very warm open energy to her that really can’t be put into words and only experienced. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a very professional yet warm and down to earth therapist.

I came to BetterHelp and was recommended to Kristen during a crazy week of my life.

I felt that she listened and always gave me room to share as much or as little as I felt comfortable doing.

I feel like Kristin is a very caring person which is great for what I need since I need someone that I feel comfortable with to open up. I talk alot about how I'm feeling and I feel like she listens to everything and takes in every piece of information that I give her instead of just focusing on one part. Except when we are purposefully going into depth on the matter. Her approach to questioning in order to get to the root of the problem I feel are very direct and helpful for the problems I'm dealing with that helps me explore my thoughts about how I'm feeling and the deeper problems. She is great at responding to my journals and posts online addressing mostly everything I said in a reasonable time. I feel like she is dependable for helping me find solutions where I'm at the point where if I'm feeling a certain way I can talk to her about it to work out a solution that I'll happy with.
