About Kristine

Kristine Savoury is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of clinical experience who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, substance concerns, relationship struggles, grief, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She creates a nonjudgmental, steady space where clients can explore emotions, clarify priorities, and work toward practical goals. Her approach emphasizes support, insight, and feedback while honoring each person’s pace and readiness for change.

Kristine draws from evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral approaches, attachment-based and client-centered techniques, and skills from dialectical behavior and emotionally focused therapies to tailor care to the situation. She has significant experience in medical settings and with clients facing chronic illness, caregiving demands, loss, and complex trauma.

Her background includes working across the lifespan, from teens to people in their 90s, and supporting individuals and families through crisis, decision-making, and transitional periods. Committed to promoting overall wellness, Kristine aims to help clients improve coping, self-esteem, motivation, communication, and relationship functioning.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process and encourages practical, strengths-based steps that move people closer to the life changes they want to make.

How evidence-informed approaches translate to online therapy

Kristine integrates cognitive behavioral ideas with attachment-aware and client-centered principles to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and developing practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current connections and can help with intimacy issues, communication problems, and relationship distress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience, prioritizing empathy and the client’s perspective to build trust and clarify goals.

Finding the right approach is collaborative rather than predetermined. Kristine will work with each client to assess needs, try methods that fit their goals, and adjust the balance of skill-building, relationship exploration, or supportive reflection over time. This process aims to match interventions to what feels most helpful for the individual.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or geographic limitations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice newly learned skills between meetings, and receive consistent support while balancing other life demands.
