About Kristin
Kristin Money is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, trauma, and related struggles. She speaks plainly and listens closely, meeting clients where they are and moving at a comfortable pace. Kristin identifies as LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent, and offers counseling from a secular perspective.
She brings 12 years of experience and a Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling earned in 2013. Her personal history of surviving domestic violence and parental abuse shapes how she understands safety and healing. Kristin emphasizes empathy and validation while also acknowledging social and systemic influences on a person’s life.
Her work often addresses panic, anxiety, grief, depression, and the effects of trauma. She supports people in recognizing harmful family patterns, managing compassion fatigue, and clarifying life purpose. Kristin also helps with attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, body image, and the challenges of living with ADHD.
Kristin uses a mix of therapeutic tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, and solution-focused methods. She adapts techniques to each person rather than following a fixed formula. Sessions move at the client’s pace and aim to build internal safety and practical skills.
Per state licensing rules, she practices with residents who physically live in Tennessee. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist’s availability.
How specific therapies are used in online work
Kristin often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and practice different responses. CBT focuses on small, practical steps and is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns.She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. EMDR is applied alongside other trauma-informed practices to support healing from past abuse.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That decision can shift over time as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing time spent traveling to appointments. Online work can make it easier to keep regular check-ins and to practice skills in everyday environments. Session formats are not detailed here, so confirm current options before booking to make sure they match your needs.
