About Kristin

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with 12 years of experience, Kristin Money focuses on trauma, grief, anxiety, and stress. She works with people who have experienced abuse and with neurodivergent clients to help them build a clearer sense of self. Sessions are offered in English and are provided only to residents physically located in Tennessee.

Kristin draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques. She describes her approach as secular and trauma-informed. Kristin emphasizes validating each person’s experience while also recognizing how larger social systems can affect wellbeing.

Her background includes surviving domestic violence and parental abuse, and she has provided individual counseling since 2012. She earned a Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling in 2013 and holds the LPC credential in Tennessee. That lived experience informs her work with people processing trauma and difficult family patterns.

Kristin aims to help people reduce trauma symptoms, notice harmful family patterns, and identify personal strengths that support recovery. She often works at a person’s pace and focuses on creating what she calls inner safety. Treatment integrates techniques from several approaches rather than relying on a single model.

She is LGBTQIA+ and gender accepting and affirming, and identifies as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. She also identifies as neurodivergent and provides secular counseling without religious influence. Per Tennessee licensing rules, she works only with residents physically located in Tennessee.

Approaches used in online sessions

Kristin commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR along with Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. EMDR is used to process traumatic memories so they feel less overwhelming. DBT offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristin will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can involve trying skills-based work, trauma processing, or a mix of both depending on how someone responds.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by cutting travel time and allowing appointments during a lunch break or between errands. They also let people use video or audio as suits their comfort and bandwidth, and they can be scheduled to match a person’s weekly routine.
