About Kristen

Kristen Wilson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed to practice in Illinois and Florida who brings 14 years of professional experience to her work. She earned a Master of Social Work and has spent a significant portion of her career serving as a school social worker, later expanding her practice to offer psychotherapy for both adults and children. While residing in Florida, she has provided individual therapy and clinical supervision for candidates pursuing licensure as qualified supervisors.

Her clinical experience includes supporting people facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, substance dependence, grief, and the aftermath of trauma. Kristen approaches therapy with warmth, respect, and sensitivity, avoiding stigmatizing labels and focusing instead on each person as an individual. Her style is interactive and collaborative, blending evidence-based techniques with humanistic attention to the person behind the presenting concerns.

Kristen adapts treatment to each client, drawing on cognitive-behavioral methods, solution-focused strategies, mindfulness practices, and client-centered principles to address issues such as relationships, self-esteem, anger, eating concerns, and life transitions. She emphasizes empowerment and practical steps toward a more fulfilling life, and she welcomes those ready to begin change and growth.

Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy

Kristen Wilson commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy in her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a collaborative, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and reflects so clients can explore their values and make meaningful changes. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and simple practices that reduce reactivity and support coping with stress, trauma responses, and emotional ups and downs.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Kristen collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time so treatment aligns with what is most helpful for that individual.

Online therapy with Kristen is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for varied schedules and life demands. These options make it easier to access consistent support without traveling, and they allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care across changing circumstances.
