How Krystle brings ACT, CBT, and motivational work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when emotions feel strong. This approach can help with substance use, mood struggles, and decisions about relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and uses step-by-step exercises to change patterns and reduce symptoms like depression or anxiety. Motivational Interviewing focuses on building a person’s own reasons for change, useful when someone feels unsure about making life changes such as addressing addiction or managing mood swings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Krystle works collaboratively to identify what fits each person's goals and preferences, and she adjusts methods based on progress and feedback. Clients help set priorities and the therapist suggests tools to try between sessions.
