Kristine Rezny is a California-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with eight years of direct practice.

Background and approach
Kristine emphasizes client strengths and collaborates to build realistic steps toward improved wellbeing. Her background includes supporting clients through identity development, challenges related to injury and sports performance, school-based counseling, and a range of mental health concerns such as post-traumatic stress, body image struggles, and communication difficulties.
Kristine uses evidence-informed methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients identify patterns, test new coping skills, and shift unhelpful thinking. She invites prospective clients to consider whether her style and areas of focus fit their needs and welcomes those ready to begin the work of change.
Practical CBT-informed Approaches for Online Care
Kristine often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice patterns of thinking and behavior, test alternative perspectives, and develop concrete coping skills for anxiety, stress, grief, and related concerns. CBT sessions typically involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying new behavioral experiments, and practicing techniques between meetings to build lasting change.Her practice emphasizes collaboration: she partners with each person to determine which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will explore options, adjust strategies over time, and agree on short-term goals that feel manageable and relevant to daily life.
Online therapy with Kristine is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which supports flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels with remote communication. These formats make it possible to access licensed professionals without rearranging an entire day, and they allow continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult. Overall, the goal is to make evidence-informed treatment approachable and workable for each person's life.
