About Kristine

Kristine Edwards is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan who centers her practice on helping people reclaim their voice and sense of purpose.

Background and approach

With 19 years of experience, she combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and client-centered methods to identify patterns that hold clients back and introduce practical ways to move forward. Kristine frames therapy as a collaborative journey in which the client and therapist work as partners to uncover goals, values, and motivating forces.

She helps clients notice what discourages or frightens them and then develops step-by-step strategies to challenge those roadblocks. Whether addressing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, eating and intimacy-related issues, or career and self-esteem struggles, Kristine aims to support meaningful change through focused work and compassionate encouragement.

Her approach emphasizes client strengths while offering tools to manage daily pressures and life transitions. Kristine also offers coaching-style support for those seeking guidance on direction, motivation, or professional growth.

She engages clients as an ally and change agent, helping them translate insight into action, set attainable goals, and move toward outcomes that reflect their priorities.

Integrating CBT and Client-Centered Care Online

Kristine uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop concrete strategies to shift behaviors; this approach is often useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and practical problem solving. She also draws on client-centered therapy, offering an empathic, nonjudgmental stance that emphasizes the client's own experience and goals to foster insight and self-directed growth.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristine works with each person to clarify goals, explore preferences, and tailor interventions that align with what matters most to them. That partnership helps shape whether sessions emphasize skills practice, values exploration, coaching techniques, or reflective conversation.

Online therapy with Kristine is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy lives, continue care during transitions, and access therapeutic support from home or work. Licensed professionals can adapt evidence-based methods to remote formats while helping clients move from insight to practical change.
