Kristina is wonderful! She is very sweet and understanding. We sometimes have conflicts in scheduling due to my crazy schedule or medical needs but she tries her best to accommodate me.

Kristina has been an incredible resource for me in my mental health journey. I am constantly impressed with her expertise, and she always makes me feel comfortable and unjudged to share what I’m struggling with. She has helped me establish so many positive habits and personal growth strategies that have made a big impact in my life.

More about Kristina

Has this year created feelings of overwhelming stress, anxiety and depression for you and your family members? With over a decade of mental health experience, I am here to support you as we navigate together through these uncertain times. My training and experience cuts across a wide range of therapeutic needs, including: mood disorders such as Anxiety and Depression, trauma (both chronic and acute), child and adolescence treatment, grief and loss (including chronic illness/pain and end of life care), issues unique to military members and their families, and kink positive/alternative culture proficiency.

As a Marriage and Family therapist, my therapeutic framework looks at the client's needs in relation to the systems (family, parent-child, couple, work, etc.) the client functions in. My treatment approaches utilize evidenced-based models such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Contextual Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT and Family Systems. My relational style is to provide unconditional acceptance and warmth, and I am deeply committed to providing a safe space, free of judgement or criticism, to allow my clients to explore their own strengths and solutions.

The first step towards change is often the hardest, and congratulations for taking that leap of faith in yourself. I am here to walk those next steps towards your life goals with you, you are worth it.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Kristina is an incredible therapist and human being. She is compassionate and understanding, remembers tiny details and really cares about her clients. She is flexible with scheduling and is a great communicator, answering all messages and providing help between sessions. I literally could not recommend anyone more.

Kristina is wonderful!

Reviewed August 2023

Kristina really outshines the dozens of other therapists I've worked with over the years in her compassion, insight, and humor. She is extremely client-focused, and is willing to put in the extra work it takes to understand her clients' concerns outside of sessions. She is hilarious and irreverent, which works well with my queer atheistic sensibilities. She has significant experience in her areas of competency, and she is humble enough to acknowledge when we are venturing outside of those realms. I hope to be seeing Kristina for years to come.

Reviewed July 2022

I’m so grateful to have Kristina Huddleston as my therapist as I navigate through my grief and loss. I’ve been going to her for several months now and I’m so much better off because of it. She gives me valuable resources and has equipped me to guide and lead conversations as a caregiver/wife. I feel more confident in my communication skills at a time where my emotions can be all over the place. I have also learned ( from her) the importance of validating and listening to what my emotions are communicating to me. Kristina consistently makes me feel welcome, heard and supported which is why I look forward to meeting with her every week. I highly recommend her and think Better Help is really lucky to have her on their platform!

I am very grateful to have been chosen to work with Kristina. She not only assists me through my tough days, but she also challenges me on my best. I enjoy our conversations and the ease of the app, makes it more enjoyable than having to drive and be flustered in changing new therapists through insurances.
