About Kristian
Kristian Wilson is a licensed mental health counselor with 16 years of experience in clinical care. She is licensed in Florida as an LMHC and also holds an LPC credential. She focuses on working with individuals who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, addiction, grief, and major life changes.
Kristian prioritizes a warm, affirming atmosphere where people can speak honestly about what they are facing. Sessions are collaborative and practical.
Background and approach
She helps clients identify small, manageable steps they can take between meetings. Her work often addresses intimacy, communication problems, self-esteem, and parenting strain. She also supports people dealing with trauma, sleeping difficulties, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Kristian incorporates attention to identity and LGBT concerns when relevant to the client. Clinically, she draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness. She also uses motivational interviewing and narrative approaches to help people clarify values and reframe difficult stories about themselves.
Kristian aims to help people build coping skills, improve relationships, and manage mood or stress so daily life feels more doable. She offers flexible session styles to fit different schedules and needs. The goal is steady, practical progress rather than quick fixes.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's perspective. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what she hears, and helps people understand their own goals and values. It suits concerns like low self-esteem, identity questions, and relationship communication.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT often includes short exercises, thought records, and practical homework to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep trouble.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices can be used during brief check-ins or as daily exercises to lessen stress and improve sleep.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Plans can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face when they want deeper connection. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging provide a lower-intensity option for ongoing support between synchronous sessions. These choices make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
