Kristi Lindley, LPC

Kristi Lindley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 26 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. She also supports those facing parenting struggles, eating and addiction issues, ADHD, and major life changes. Her approach centers on listening first and helping people notice how their thoughts and everyday habits affect daily life.

She keeps sessions warm and interactive, aiming for respect and sensitivity in every conversation. Kristi encourages open sharing of thoughts and feelings without judgment. She focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions to test what helps.

Her work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas, acceptance and commitment strategies, client-centered listening, mindfulness, and solution-focused problem solving. That mix is used to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s goals and situation. Kristi avoids labeling and works to reduce shame and blame.

Typical sessions look at patterns in thinking and routine habits that keep problems going. She helps people build small, doable changes and steady coping skills. Over time that steady work can ease distress and make daily life feel more manageable.

Kristi practices in Mississippi and communicates in English. She welcomes international clients and uses a matching process to set up the first session. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire so scheduling can match their needs and availability.

How her approaches guide online work

Kristi blends cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and change how they respond. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments, which can reduce anxiety and mood symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes noticing thoughts without fighting them and choosing actions that match personal values, useful for ongoing stress and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a few strategies and adjusting based on what feels most helpful in day-to-day life.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit therapy into a busy schedule, have shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Online work can make it easier to practice skills in real situations and to bring everyday habits into the conversation so changes are practical and relevant.
