About Kristin
Kristin Kenny is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and trauma.
Background and approach
With ten years of clinical experience, she works with adults and adolescents from varied cultural backgrounds on issues such as depression, grief, relationship conflict, and coping with life transitions. Her practice emphasizes supporting clients to develop practical skills and healthier ways of thinking so they can move forward with greater resilience.
Kristin grounds her work in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) while integrating a person-centered stance that centers each client's perspective. She weaves in techniques from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), emotionally-focused and attachment-informed ideas, trauma-focused methods, and mindfulness strategies when those tools fit a client's needs.
The aim is to help clients gain new perspectives, strengthen coping skills, and challenge unhelpful beliefs that stand in the way of change. Kristin frames therapy as collaborative exploration, offering guidance as clients uncover patterns and practice new ways of responding to life’s challenges.
Online approaches that support skill building and attachment work
Kristin often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and practice concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on changing patterns of thinking and behavior to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.She also draws on attachment-informed and emotionally focused ideas to explore relationship patterns and emotional responses that emerge in close connections. These approaches help clients understand relational dynamics and develop healthier ways of relating and regulating emotions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristin works with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and the issues most affecting their lives, and then tailors techniques from CBT, attachment work, or client-centered support to fit each person’s needs.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or to access care from different locations within Texas. These formats allow for ongoing work on skills, reflection between sessions, and regular contact in ways that support continuity and flexibility for clients.
