About Kristina
Kristina Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping adults who are facing depression, anxiety, stress, and the long-term effects of trauma. Her work centers on supporting people as they rebuild self-esteem and find steadier footing after major life changes.
She creates a compassionate, affirming space for people to talk through hard feelings like guilt, shame, and abandonment. Sessions emphasize listening and practical steps that can be tried between meetings.
How Kristina works
Kristina pays attention to each person’s identity and background as part of care. Clients often bring concerns about relationships, isolation, divorce and separation, or questions about life purpose and meaning. She also addresses issues commonly described as women’s issues and mood disorders, including post-traumatic stress.
The tone in sessions is steady and respectful, with an emphasis on self-compassion and forward movement. Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and homework when helpful. She aims to meet people where they are and tailor work to individual needs.
The focus is on small, practical changes that add up over time. Kristina supports clients in exploring forgiveness, repairing communication problems, and managing stress in daily life. People leave sessions with clearer next steps and a sense of direction for ongoing healing.

Evidence-based techniques and online care
Kristina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions and practical work. For example, approaches that focus on managing mood and anxiety teach skills for identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of responding to stress. Techniques for trauma-related concerns help people process difficult memories and learn coping strategies for strong emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to figure out which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying methods for a few sessions and adjusting based on what feels most helpful.
Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from home or other convenient places. It can also accommodate brief phone or messaging check-ins when a shorter touchpoint is useful. Ask about available options when you complete the matching questionnaire so session plans match your life and goals.
