Kristine Savoury , LCSW

Kristine Savoury is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings 14 years of professional experience and has held her LCSW credential for seven years. She offers steady, nonjudgmental support for people facing difficult transitions, complex medical decisions, grief, family conflict, and mental health or substance use concerns. Her practice focuses on helping clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and blended-family challenges, and life changes that affect motivation and self-esteem.

Having spent significant time working with individuals and families in crisis and in health care settings, she understands the layers of complexity that arise when major medical or chronic conditions affect daily life and relationships. Her experience spans adolescents through older adults into their 90s, and she has supported people dealing with loss, caregiving strain, chronic pain and illness, and decision making under pressure. Kristine has worked closely with those affected by sexual, physical and emotional trauma as well as with clients managing co-occurring conditions.

Her approach is solution focused while grounded in empathy - she meets clients where they are and helps prioritize concerns with honesty and kindness. She provides practical insight, feedback, and encouragement to support personal growth, increased clarity, and stronger coping. Kristine believes it is never too late to make meaningful change, and she aims to empower people to reach the goals that matter most to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kristine integrates evidence-informed methods to tailor support to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of connection and security in relationships - it helps when early or current attachment issues contribute to anxiety, abandonment concerns, trust problems, or relationship conflict. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting the person with empathy and respect, creating space for self-directed growth and clearer decision making in areas like self-esteem, life changes, and caregiving stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works with thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and difficulty managing stress or motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kristine works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align best with their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. She adjusts strategies over time as needs evolve and as progress is made.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, medical appointments, or long-distance circumstances. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into a busy life, and access licensed professionals from different locations while receiving consistent therapeutic support.
