About Kristine
Kristine Mills is an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) practicing in New Mexico with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also helps people dealing with relationship strain, grief, intimacy-related issues, and a range of family and personal challenges including blended family issues.
Kristine approaches sessions as a collaborative, practical process. She listens to what matters most to each person and uses evidence-based methods to address symptoms and patterns that get in the way of daily life. Conversations focus on concrete skills, managing difficult emotions, and making choices that match a person’s values.
Her work draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and elements from dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused work. Those approaches are used to help with mood, coping skills, relationship interactions, and processing distressing memories.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Kristine helps people set short-term goals, practice new ways of responding, and revisit what is or isn’t working between meetings. She also supports people sorting through family roles, communication problems, and specific challenges that come up in blended households.
Kristine offers help in English only. People who want to start are invited to follow the site's process to see online therapy options, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with what matters to them. It emphasizes values-driven action and practical exercises to reduce avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and teaching concrete skills to change them. These skills are useful for anxiety, depression, and many daily stressors. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current interactions and helps people change recurring responses in relationships.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Kristine will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they will try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust the plan over time based on progress and feedback.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography doesn’t list them here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into work breaks, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when life is busy. They also let therapists and clients use screen-shared exercises, worksheets, and in-session skill practice. Licensed professionals adapt these approaches to the online setting so skill-building and emotional processing can continue without needing to change living arrangements.
