About Kristin

Kristin Esposita-Ublacker is a licensed clinical social worker with more than two decades of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and a wide range of emotional and life challenges.

Background and approach

She brings a warm, compassionate presence and a clear commitment to making difficult days feel a little lighter by offering attentive listening and practical support. Kristin emphasizes respect and a nonjudgmental stance while helping clients explore what they want to change and how to move forward.

Her practice focuses on identifying goals, clarifying questions about problems or transitions, and setting achievable steps to address those areas. Kristin draws on mindfulness-based approaches to help clients manage mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, relationship and family difficulties, parenting concerns, and issues like impulsivity, isolation, and fertility-related stress.

Licensed in New York as LCSW-R and in Massachusetts as LICSW, she combines professional training with a simple aim: to make sure no one has to face their struggles completely alone.

Mindfulness-informed care delivered online

Kristin uses mindfulness-informed therapy to help clients build present-moment awareness and develop skills for managing stress, anxiety, and mood regulation. This approach emphasizes noticing thoughts and bodily sensations without harsh judgment and can be useful for people coping with racing thoughts, impulsivity, or overwhelming emotions.

Her practice centers on collaboration; she works with each person to identify goals, try different strategies, and determine which therapeutic methods feel most helpful. Finding the right approach is presented as a process to be explored together, with adjustments made according to the client's needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexible options for fitting therapy into busy schedules or for those who prefer different communication styles. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from wherever the client is located in New York, while choosing the format that best supports their day-to-day life.
