About

About Kristine

Kristine Fournier is a Licensed Professional Counselor who takes a practical, person-focused approach to care. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and adapts conversations to each situation. She aims to make therapy direct and useful for busy parents and adults facing stress or big life changes.

Kristine uses a blend of client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, and skills drawn from dialectical behavior approaches. She helps people notice unhelpful thinking, practice new coping skills, and build stronger habits for emotion regulation.

Background and approach

Sessions often include talking through problems, planning small changes, and rehearsing skills to try between meetings. Her background includes seven years of professional work in counseling settings in Wisconsin. That experience has brought repeated work with anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma, and parenting concerns.

She also addresses issues like relationship struggles, communication problems, blended family challenges, and postpartum and pregnancy-related concerns. In a typical meeting she focuses on what matters most to the client. That might be reducing panic, improving daily routines, managing anger, or navigating life transitions like loss or changing family roles.

She aims to listen without judgment and to offer straightforward tools clients can practice at home. Kristine offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, and text messaging. She explains that therapy is a collaborative process - client and therapist set goals together and check progress as they go.

Her practice follows Wisconsin LPC standards and sessions are conducted in English.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting support

Kristine uses client-centered work to build a trusting conversation. This approach means sessions start with listening closely to what matters to the client and shaping goals around their priorities. It is helpful for parents who want a respectful space to talk through daily struggles and family role changes.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve routines. Dialectical behavior therapy contributes skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships through clear communication and distress-tolerance strategies.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review problems, goals, and preferences and then decide which tools to try first. That collaborative process lets the plan evolve as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people talk face-to-face when possible. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Chat and texting support quick check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around parenting, work, and other obligations.
