About Kris
Kris Rice is a KS LSCSW - a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker in Kansas - with 23 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting concerns, anger, career questions, and the particular pressures of young adulthood.
Kris focuses on practical conversation and steady support. She uses clear talk to help people name problems and try different ways of coping. Sessions look at patterns in relationships and day-to-day thinking that keep difficulties going. She helps people practice skills and make small changes that fit their life.
Clients meet someone who listens without judgment and works with them to set goals. Kris adapts discussions to the person in front of her rather than following a fixed script. She supports choices about next steps, whether that means skill-building, trying new ways of relating, or focusing on mood and coping.
People often come for help after big life changes - leaving home, starting a job, relationship shifts, or grief. Kris helps untangle what feels overwhelming, one step at a time.
How Kris uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions
Kris draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape reactions today. This approach helps when trust, closeness, or fear of abandonment affect relationships and emotional safety. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and practical coping skills.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Kris will talk with clients about what feels useful and adjust the plan as goals and needs change. That conversation is collaborative and practical, focusing on what can be tried between sessions and how progress will be checked.
Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow sessions during breaks from school or work. It can also make some check-ins simpler when bandwidth is limited or when a brief phone call suits the day better.
