About Kristi
Kristi Lindley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 26 years of clinical experience based in Mississippi. She helps people who struggle with stress, anxiety, relationships, family problems, eating concerns, addictions, grief, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and other life changes.
Kristi listens without judgment and encourages honest talk about thoughts and feelings. She aims for clear, practical steps rather than long explanations. Sessions focus on understanding what you want to change and what gets in the way.
Her work draws on cognitive behavioral methods to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice painful thoughts while committing to personal values. Solution-focused and client-centered ideas guide shorter-term goals and respectful conversation.
Kristi commonly addresses specific concerns such as body image, communication problems, commitment or control issues, blended family dynamics, and the effects of trauma or domestic violence. She also supports people facing fertility stress, first responder pressures, and substance use challenges.
Practical tools, mindfulness practices, and goal-setting are frequent parts of sessions. Kristi encourages people to try concrete skills between meetings and then review what worked. Her approach aims to help people manage symptoms and make choices that fit their values.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work
Kristi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach often involves clear exercises and homework to practice between meetings. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that reflect personal values. Both approaches are useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and coping with life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will talk together about what methods feel most useful and adjust the plan based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide which techniques to try and when to shift focus.
