Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions with Kristen Hagin



Kristen integrates client-centered therapy and motivational interviewing into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening, empathy, and supporting clients to explore their values and goals - it is helpful for stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and navigating life changes. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused approach that helps people resolve ambivalence and find internal motivation for change - it is often useful for addictions, behavior change, and enhancing commitment to treatment.

Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic process. Kristen works collaboratively with each person to evaluate what feels most useful given their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time to fit what is working best.

Online therapy offers flexible options for connecting - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow clients to access licensed professionals from a range of locations and schedules. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and find a communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward meaningful change.
