About Kristine
Dr. Kristine Quallich is a psychologist licensed in California and Ohio with 28 years of experience. She has a background in school psychology and community-based therapy and works with adults on a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, parenting, and blended family issues.
She uses straightforward, evidence-based methods in sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are core tools she draws on. She also practices client-centered and mindfulness approaches to help people notice what matters and take practical steps forward.
Her earlier work in schools involved helping students with academic and behavioral problems and supporting families around social-emotional challenges. That school psychology experience informs how she talks about parenting, routines, and child-related stress when adults bring those topics to therapy.
In community settings she has supported adults with anger management, job-related concerns that can be addressed with counseling, and family-related difficulties. She also has experience with grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, eating and sleeping issues, and coping with life changes.
Her sessions focus on clear goals and tools people can use outside the appointment. She incorporates meditation and mindfulness skills when useful and frames work as practical steps toward values-based living. People who want to discuss stepfamily roles, co-parenting tensions, or loyalty conflicts often find this practical emphasis helpful.
Approaches used in online sessions and practical benefits
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and commit to small actions that reflect those values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and when someone needs to make changes aligned with long-term goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating difficulties, and many daily problems that respond to skill practice.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s perspective and the therapist’s listening. It supports people who want to be heard, to sort out priorities, and to make choices without feeling judged.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean combining ACT, CBT, and mindfulness tools over several sessions.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some approaches translate well to short skill practices you can try between meetings, while others use longer sessions for deeper problem-solving. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so the work fits into everyday life.
