Hello,
My name is Kristen Holmes and I am Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin. I have worked over 5 years in the mental health field with individuals, parents, and families. My expertise derives from working with individuals that are experiencing transitions or change, grief and loss, as well as symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and trauma. My experience as a therapist includes working with children, teenagers, adults, couples, and parents. I also do a great deal of work with families and caregivers in adoption-related and foster care-related issues.
My practice and therapeutic approach is person-centered and trauma-informed where the focus of therapy is on the person, not the problem. The goal of person-centered therapy is for the client to achieve greater independence. Utlimately, this will allow the client to better cope with current and future problems. Additionally, I practice attachment-based therapy, which assists the client in specifically addressing thoughts, feelings, communications, behaviors, and interpersonal relationship where clients have learned to suppress or avoid, amplify or overemphasize because of attachment experiences.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
