About Kristen

Kristen Hamm is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with five years of clinical experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. She works with people who struggle with low self-esteem, motivation, and life changes. Kristen also notes a focus on codependency, communication problems, and issues like abandonment and guilt.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions center on talking through current problems, learning practical skills to manage thoughts and emotions, and trying small changes that make daily life easier. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral work and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and choose actions that match their values.

Kristen practices client-centered methods that keep the conversation focused on what matters most to the person in the room. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and track progress week to week. These methods are used together to move from feeling stuck toward clearer choices.

She draws on personal experience as a long-term spouse and parent, which shaped her decision to become a counselor. That background informs how she talks about relationship strain, parenting stress, and roles people fall into over time.

In sessions she helps people build confidence, improve communication, and reduce the day-to-day burden of worry or shame. The work often involves skill practice, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and identifying small steps that fit into a busy life. To begin, Kristen asks people to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session so you can see if the fit feels right.

How sessions work

How Kristen uses ACT, CBT and solution-focused work online

Kristen draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, which can help with anxiety and low self-worth.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that increase worry or depression and to teach skills for changing those patterns. CBT often includes simple behavioral experiments and thought records to test unhelpful beliefs. Solution-focused techniques are used to set short-term goals and track practical steps that create measurable change week to week.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristen will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what works. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools to emphasize as the work progresses.

Confirm session options before booking so you know which formats are offered for her practice. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or remove travel time so sessions can occur between other obligations. Licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to keep therapeutic work consistent with everyday life.
