About Kristie

Kristie Cooley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, anger, and depression. Kristie also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, and blended family issues.

Her approach is practical and direct. She talks things through with clients and helps them spot patterns that keep causing pain. Sessions often focus on clearer communication, managing strong emotions, and setting small, doable goals.

Kristie pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions. She helps people notice how attachment and trust issues affect their relationships. For someone joining a blended household, she offers ways to manage loyalty conflicts and reshaped routines.

She addresses substance use and addictive behaviors alongside mood and anxiety symptoms. That can mean learning strategies to reduce urges, handle triggers, and repair relationships affected by those behaviors. She also supports people coping with chronic illness or caregiver stress with practical coping skills.

Kristie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to fit each person’s needs. New clients complete an intake to map priorities, then Kristie and the client set short-term steps and review progress. She works in English and practices in Florida.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Kristie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common method she uses helps people recognize unhelpful thought patterns and learn new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. This approach focuses on practical exercises and coping skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Another approach addresses attachment and relationship patterns by looking at past experiences that shape current reactions. This work helps people notice how they relate to others, manage loyalty conflicts, and rebuild trust in close relationships, including challenges that come up in blended households.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Kristie and each client review goals, try methods, and adjust plans as progress is made. She aims to involve the client in deciding which techniques feel most helpful for their concerns and preferences.
