01About Kristina
Kristina Kerr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings 20 years of experience to sessions. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and relationship struggles. Her approach centers on meeting people where they are and treating them with respect.
She offers straightforward, individual counseling for a wide range of concerns. That includes mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also helps with behavior concerns like substance use, eating and sleeping problems, and anger or impulsivity. Kristina blends several approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on client-centered methods to build trust and on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Dialectical behavior strategies and mindfulness are used when managing strong emotions or building coping skills. Her work often addresses relationship and family-related stress without assuming a particular family setup. She helps people navigate communication problems, codependency, infidelity, divorce and separation, and family of origin issues.
Fertility, body image, and feelings of isolation are also common topics in her practice. Kristina has a background that includes counseling people with substance use and trauma histories. She prefers a collaborative, adaptable style and will suggest tools you can try between sessions.
The goal is steady progress toward the changes you want to see. She practices in Tennessee and conducts sessions in English. Online formats include video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

04Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Kristina commonly uses client-centered techniques and cognitive behavioral therapy in her online work. Client-centered methods focus on listening, acceptance, and building a trusting relationship so people feel understood and can explore their goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then tests small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy tools when emotion regulation or impulsivity is an issue. DBT skills teach practical ways to manage intense feelings, improve tolerance for distress, and strengthen interpersonal effectiveness during stressful moments.
Figuring out the right approach is part of the early work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques make sense based on their goals and what feels comfortable. That plan can change over time as needs shift.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video sessions let the therapist and client work face-to-face when schedules or travel are difficult. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing check-ins, skill practice, or quick scheduling communication. Together these formats provide flexibility and make it easier to keep therapy consistent around life demands.
