Kristin Meadows, LCMHC

Kristin Meadows is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with more than 12 years of clinical experience. She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, self-esteem, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Kristin aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can name what’s hard and begin to move forward.

She brings experience from outpatient individual and group therapy, intensive outpatient programs, and work on treatment teams supporting people with co-occurring disorders. That background informs a practical style aimed at everyday problems and patterns, not just diagnosis labels. Kristin also has experience addressing drug and alcohol addiction and post-traumatic stress.

Her way of working is client-centered and trauma-informed, with an emphasis on unconditional positive regard. She listens for strengths, values, and motivation, then uses that material to set goals that matter to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on building skills, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and increasing confidence to handle life’s challenges.

Kristin draws from a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She mixes methods to match each person’s needs rather than following a single script.

Her goal is to support people through self-discovery and to help them feel more able to reach their goals. Prospective clients are encouraged to confirm current session options before booking.

How Kristin’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel heard and decide what goals matter to them in day-to-day life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses simple exercises to clarify values and build small actions toward those values, which can be helpful for anxiety, avoidance, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Kristin works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a persons needs and goals. She uses the clients input to blend techniques from ACT, CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and solution-focused work so sessions match what the person wants to accomplish.

The practical benefit of online therapy is that it can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Many clients appreciate shorter travel time and the option to schedule sessions around work or caregiving. If you want online meetings, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. A licensed professional can help adapt ACT and CBT exercises for remote sessions, such as using values worksheets, brief behavioral experiments, and skill coaching during the meeting.
