Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Love Kristen she is an amazing individual who is real. Kristen listens and reaches out often. She genuinely cares for her patients.
Kristen is an incredible Therapist. She's so personable and welcoming. She hold you accountable and is never afraid to provide you with tough love. I was so happy that I matched with here. She is an excellent human being.
Kristen is everything I needed in a therapist to help me navigate my pregnancy loss. She is kind, understanding, and truly genuine in her words. She offers words of wisdom but also will sit in the silence with me when needed too. I am so grateful for her!
Kristen has helped me stay focused on me.
A kind and intuitive person who listened when I needed and gave great advice.

I have been in and out of therapy most of my life (30 years) and never have I had a therapist who makes me feel like I'm actually understood. Kristen reminds me I won't feel like this forever and with time I can get better.
Kristen is the first therapist I’ve ever worked with, and she immediately made me feel comfortable being open and vulnerable. It’s been so helpful having her support setting goals, learning tools to cope with anxiety, and seeing myself make progress setting boundaries in my relationships. Having someone outside of my personal life to help keep me accountable has been a hugely positive experience!
She is kind, caring, supportive, and challenges me in good ways to help me reframe and heal.
So far, so good!!
Kristen is a great benefit to my betterment of self awareness. She gives me the opportunity to see where I am stuck and helps me return to my center peace. With her help I know I will find my way home. Thank You CLFox
Kristen has been able to hold space for me, teach me tools and guide me through difficult times. I love her ability to be compassionate yet direct with her communication and I have enjoyed my time growing with her help. Would recommend working with her any day.
Kristen is so very positive! She is willing to help you get stronger and support your true self.
Kristin is amazingly kind and relatable. My anxiety about therapy was immediately put at ease and I always look forward to connecting with her.
she listens and is understanding, there's no judgment and she helps me solve what's going on in my head
I would highly recommend Kristen to anyone! I've only been using BetterHelp for a couple of weeks but my experience with her has been excellent. She is very professional, diligent, understanding and caring.
