Kristina Hentges

Kristina Hentges is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, relationship struggles, and intimacy-related concerns. She works with individuals facing mood and panic symptoms, social anxiety, and the specific pressures many women encounter. Kristina aims to make starting therapy feel manageable and direct. With 12 years of experience, she focuses on practical, step-by-step support. Sessions are used to talk through current problems, set realistic goals, and practice new skills for everyday life. She describes counseling as walking alongside someone through a hard patch rather than fixing everything at once. Her background includes work with people dealing with grief, substance challenges, and attachment or abandonment wounds. Kristina also helps clients address communication breakdowns, relationship endings, and issues around forgiveness, guilt, and self-worth. Financial stress and workplace strain are other areas she commonly addresses. Kristina prefers to hold sessions using video or audio only. She holds licensure as an LPC in Alaska and in Texas. Language of service is English and she does not accept international clients. For many people, beginning therapy feels like a first step toward more calm and clearer decisions. Kristina aims to create a space where a person can try new ways of coping, name goals, and practice tools that fit daily life.

Practical approaches for online healing and growth

Kristina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and usable tools. One common approach emphasizes skill-building for anxiety and panic symptoms, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior strategies to reduce high-arousal moments and improve daily functioning. Another approach addresses trauma and attachment wounds by helping people name difficult experiences, notice patterns in relationships, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others. Choosing the best approach is a team effort. Kristina works with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. Together they may try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. Kristina prefers video or audio-only sessions, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, remove travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people continue work on coping skills between appointments. If you have questions about how sessions are run, check the session options during booking to be sure they match your needs.
