About Kristin

Kristin Money is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee who helps people handle stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life changes. She emphasizes a respectful, accepting approach and aims to create a steady pace for healing. Kristin is LGBTQIA+ affirming and works from a secular perspective. She also identifies as neurodivergent and draws on that lived experience in sessions.

Kristin uses straightforward talk, listening, and practical strategies to help people manage overwhelming feelings. She blends methods such as cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, and trauma-focused techniques to meet each person where they are. Sessions focus on building safety, naming harmful patterns, and finding strengths that make everyday life easier.

Her background includes surviving domestic violence and parental abuse, and she has been providing individual counseling since 2012. Kristin completed a Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling in 2013 and holds the LPC credential. Her training and experience inform how she approaches trauma and recovery without imposing a timeline.

Kristin often supports neurodivergent people who have experienced abuse, helping them cultivate identity and inner safety. She prioritizes empathy, validation, and awareness of how social systems affect individuals. Progress is cooperative and paced to the client’s needs.

Because of state licensing rules, she works only with residents who are physically located in Tennessee. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site’s Start Therapy steps to begin the matching process.

How Kristin’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Kristin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in her work. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that increase stress and then practicing new, practical skills to change them. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristin will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort. Together they will try techniques, check what helps, and adjust as healing progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Working remotely also lets some people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera for parts of a session. Licensed professionals, including Kristin, adapt tools like CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and trauma processing to remote settings when appropriate.
