Kristin Kenny , LPC

Kristin Kenny is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 10 years of clinical experience. She has worked with adults and adolescents from diverse cultural backgrounds to address a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, grief, relationship conflict, and stress related to work or school.

Her work is grounded in a foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while integrating a person-centered approach that prioritizes each client's perspective. Kristin also weaves in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, psychodynamic insights, trauma-focused CBT techniques, and mindfulness practices as needed to meet the unique needs of each person.

Kristin believes meaningful growth often emerges through self-exploration, and she sees her role as a guide in that process. Her goal for clients is to develop new perspectives, practical coping skills, and strategies to challenge negative beliefs that no longer serve them. Acknowledging how difficult it can be to seek help, she offers steady support for those working through emotional pain and life transitions.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Kristin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical strategies for changing patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her work - this approach emphasizes empathy and collaboration so the client’s goals and experience shape the pace and focus of therapy. She incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when clients need concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kristin works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time so the plan evolves with the client’s progress and changing circumstances.

Online sessions offer flexibility and access to regular support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity when schedules change, and access licensed professionals from different locations while working toward personal goals.
