About Kristin

Kristin Lewis is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Minnesota who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, life changes, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 14 years of clinical experience, she centers work on each person’s strengths and current needs to create therapy that feels practical and relevant. Her style blends a client-centered stance with evidence-based techniques.

Kristin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, EMDR to address trauma-related symptoms, and mindfulness practices to support emotional regulation. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused strategies are woven in to support change and goal setting.

She also attends to communication problems and family of origin issues when they influence present-day functioning. Kristin works with individuals, couples, and families to improve interactions and process difficult life experiences.

She invites clients to explore realistic coping tools and develop actionable strategies for daily life, encouraging collaboration and gradual progress toward clearer relationships and greater emotional balance.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Kristin commonly integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, helping clients feel understood while exploring personal strengths and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

She also uses EMDR when trauma-related symptoms are part of the picture; this approach involves structured processing of disturbing memories to reduce their emotional impact and support recovery. Kristin tailors these methods to each person, discussing options and deciding together which approaches feel most relevant to the client’s goals and comfort level.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different routines and needs. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity when schedules change, and access care from different locations. Throughout the process, the therapist and client collaborate to adjust pacing, techniques, and communication styles so the work is practical, focused, and aligned with the client’s priorities.
