About Kristi

Kristi Lindley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with 26 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, eating issues, parenting challenges, addictions, trauma, grief, anger, self-esteem, career decisions, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD and coping with life changes.

Kristi uses straightforward, person-focused conversation to help people sort through problems. Sessions are interactive and practical. She encourages clear communication and looks for small, achievable steps rather than big leaps.

Her background includes long-term clinical work with a wide range of difficulties. Over more than two decades she has applied cognitive-behavioral ideas alongside client-centered and solution-focused ways of working. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy approaches also inform her interventions.

In session Kristi listens without judgment and helps people name thoughts and habits that get in the way. She works with clients to try small experiments, change unhelpful thinking patterns, and build coping skills for daily life. Conversations often focus on concrete strategies for managing stress, improving relationships, and handling mood swings.

People who meet her can expect a respectful, collaborative style that balances practical problem solving with attention to feelings. She invites clients to set clear goals, review progress regularly, and adjust plans when needed.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and take practical steps that matter to them. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and people trying to move forward despite difficult feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Online CBT sessions typically include identifying thinking patterns, testing those thoughts, and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, respect, and working at the client’s pace. In an online setting this can mean longer time spent understanding what matters most and shaping goals together.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences and day-to-day life. That choice can change over time as progress is reviewed and plans are adjusted.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments into a busy schedule, cutting commute time, and making it easier to have a brief check-in during a work or study break. The original profile did not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions are intended to make it easier to work on stress, relationships, mood or coping strategies without changing other daily routines.
