Kristi Lindley

Kristi Lindley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 26 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and addiction. She supports those facing relationship and family struggles, parenting challenges, eating and body-image concerns, grief, and life transitions. Kristi aims to make the first step easier by offering steady support during change.

Her style is warm and interactive. She creates a calm space where people can say what they feel without judgment. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals rather than labels or blame.

Kristi draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice difficult feelings and act on their values. Solution-focused methods are used to identify small, concrete changes that add up over time.

She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation. Kristi works with each person to shape a plan that fits their situation and priorities. Progress often looks like clearer choices, better communication, and fewer moments dominated by worry or anger.

For people juggling work, relationships, and parenting, Kristi aims to offer tools that fit real life. She encourages steady effort and celebrates small wins. If someone is ready to make a change, she offers support and practical coaching toward that goal.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help when worry, anger, or avoidance get in the way of daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different behaviors to change how a situation feels. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and anger management.

Mindfulness methods teach simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment awareness. These techniques can make it easier to pause before reacting during conflict or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kristi will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adapts sessions based on what is working and what feels most helpful to the individual.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up conversations between appointments. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions useful for regular check-ins, skills practice, and stepping through difficult moments with a licensed professional.
