About Kristine
Kristine Fournier, LPC, draws on client-centered care to help people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. She listens first, then works with each person to set clear goals and practical steps. Her style is straightforward and respectful, with an emphasis on small, doable changes.
Kristine has seven years of experience working in Wisconsin. She has supported people dealing with anger, addictions, depression, bipolar challenges, and compassion fatigue. ADHD is one of the concerns she lists among her focus areas, alongside relationship and parenting issues.
Background and approach
She uses approaches rooted in Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, practice new coping skills, and build problem-solving routines that fit daily life. Meetings are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
Kristine also addresses more specific stresses like blended family dynamics, communication problems, financial worries, and immigration-related strain. She offers guidance around pregnancy and postpartum challenges, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and grief after loss. The aim is to make progress that matters between sessions.
Her approach is flexible across formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging. Kristine frames therapy as a partnership: she brings structure and options, and each person brings their priorities and timing. Together they shape a plan that fits real life.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Kristine uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful space where people feel heard and can set their own priorities. That approach is about following the person’s lead and adapting conversation to what matters most in their life.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and practicing practical skills to change them. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and patterns that interfere with daily routines.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy is another tool she draws on for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT offers concrete skills for handling strong feelings, improving communication, and reducing impulsive reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kristine treats choosing methods as a collaborative process and will help figure out what fits best based on symptoms, goals, and personal preferences. Plans are adjusted as progress and needs change.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls work well for longer sessions that include discussion and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, practicing skills between sessions, or when flexible timing is needed. These options help people stick with therapy while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
