About Kristen

Kristen Meintzer is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, career difficulties, ADHD, and other life challenges.

Background and approach

She brings 13 years of clinical experience across outpatient care, college counseling, and residential substance abuse treatment, which informs a practical and compassionate approach to therapy. Her style is warm and interactive, rooted in a humanistic outlook that centers the person's experience while integrating evidence-based tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and solution-focused methods.

Kristen emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and avoiding stigmatizing labels as she collaborates with clients to build individualized plans and realistic goals. Clients can expect a therapist who acknowledges how hard change can be and who offers steady support through the process.

Kristen aims to help people develop skills for coping with life transitions, improving communication, addressing addictive patterns, and strengthening self-worth so they can move forward with greater clarity and resilience.

Using Evidence-Informed Approaches in Online Sessions

Kristen commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her online work, blending practical skill-building with strategies to manage emotions. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. DBT provides tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that are helpful when strong emotions or relationship patterns interfere with daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy itself, and Kristen works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques over time, integrating mindfulness and motivational interviewing when those methods will support motivation and present-moment awareness.

Online sessions through video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people balancing work, school, or other commitments. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access timely support, and practice skills between sessions while working with a licensed professional to adapt strategies to real-life situations.
