About Kristen
Kristen Hamm is an Oklahoma Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with five years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strain, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Kristen also focuses on issues like communication problems, codependency, and feelings of isolation.
Her work centers on practical conversation and clear strategies. Sessions often involve talking through difficult moments, learning skills to manage thoughts and feelings, and setting small, achievable goals. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused techniques to build concrete changes over time.
Kristen uses client-centered principles to keep the conversation grounded in a person’s own values and priorities. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy where helpful, inviting people to notice thoughts without getting stuck in them. These approaches are used to address parenting stress, midlife shifts, grief, and relational strain.
She mentions family life as part of her background, including a long marriage and adult children, and brings that lived experience into practical discussions when relevant. Kristen aims to help people gain better self-understanding and stronger day-to-day coping skills. Her sessions emphasize steady steps rather than quick fixes.
Practical problem solving is a recurring theme in her work. She helps people break down problems into manageable parts, improve communication, and rebuild confidence. The focus is on realistic tools you can use between sessions to reduce stress and improve relationships.
How sessions work
How her ACT and CBT approaches fit with online work
Kristen commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice and accept thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, parenting strain, and persistent worry. CBT targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, and confidence by introducing specific exercises and homework.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kristen will work together with each person to see which methods feel most helpful. That collaborative decision considers the person’s goals, daily life, and what feels doable week to week.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting or work by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use modes that suit them best, such as audio-only conversations if speaking on camera feels difficult or sessions timed for a lunch break. Licensed professionals often adapt materials and exercises for remote sessions so skill-building can continue between meetings.
