Kriss Light , LMFT

Kriss Light is a Jungian certificated psychotherapist and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who brings depth psychology into work with adults across life stages. She draws on Jungian concepts such as the Self, Shadow, Anima and Animus, and the process of individuation to help people explore patterns that live beneath conscious awareness. By inviting curiosity about unconscious material, she supports clients in making inner experiences clearer so they project less onto others and find greater self-acceptance and inner calm.

Her approach attends to the emotional and relational threads that shape choices and reactions, guiding clients through transitions such as loss, trauma, health challenges, and other major life crossroads. Kriss helps people sort through feelings, values, and priorities so they can recognize what matters most and begin to trust the signs of their lives even amid difficulty.

With interests in comparative religion and Jungian studies, Kriss also draws on creativity and a background in music to support expressive and imaginative pathways in therapy. She offers a free phone consultation to determine whether she is a good fit, and when contacted she aims to respond within 24 hours. If she is not the right match, she will provide up to three referrals to help connect individuals with other resources.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Healing and Connection

Kriss integrates Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relational patterns shape current connections and emotional responses. This approach helps people understand attachment styles and work on building safer, more secure ways of relating in relationships and family life.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration. In this approach the therapist follows the client's lead, offering a supportive environment that helps clarify values, goals, and personal strengths when navigating stress, transitions, or identity questions.

When trauma or overwhelming memories are present, Kriss may incorporate EMDR techniques to help reduce the intensity of distressing experiences and promote more adaptive processing of difficult events.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Kriss works with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time, combining approaches as appropriate to support change and resilience.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people with busy schedules, geographic constraints, or mobility limits. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, licensed professionals and therapists can provide ongoing support, coordinate care, and maintain continuity of treatment while making it easier to fit sessions into daily life.
