Kristen Hamm, LPC

Kristen Hamm is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She brings five years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, motivation, parenting concerns, and depression. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She shapes talks and plans around what matters to each client. Sessions focus on understanding thoughts and emotions, learning practical skills, and building healthier patterns. Kristen aims to help people find more peace and stronger relationships in daily life. Her practice draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused ideas to target unhelpful thoughts and small, achievable changes. She also uses client-centered principles to ensure conversations follow the client’s pace and priorities. These methods are blended to match individual needs rather than following one fixed approach. Kristen shares that personal life experience inspired her career path. She emphasizes collaboration in the room and supports people as they try new ways of coping. She believes the first steps toward change take courage and she aims to make that process clearer and more manageable. In sessions clients can expect straightforward guidance, practical strategies, and encouragement to try small steps between meetings. The work often centers on improving daily routines, managing strong emotions, and repairing communication patterns. Kristen’s focus is on helping people move toward a life that feels more balanced and purposeful.

Practical approaches you can use online

Kristen brings together Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people change thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on workable steps and short-term goals to move forward quickly rather than spending long on origins.

She also uses client-centered methods to make sure sessions follow the client’s pace and priorities. This means listening closely and shaping conversations around what the client wants to address. Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared process - the therapist and client decide together what feels most useful based on goals, needs, and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and messaging options support brief updates, between-session coaching, or ongoing check-ins without needing to be on camera. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
