Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

Online session options
How narrative and client-centered work translate to online therapy
Kristine uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and rearrange the stories they carry. This approach looks at how events and meanings get woven into a life story and helps people notice other possibilities and choices.She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person's own experience. Sessions aim to be accepting and respectful so people can explore feelings and goals at their own pace.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristine will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods might help most. She adapts techniques based on how someone responds over time rather than sticking to a single method.
Online work is offered by phone and live chat, which can fit different needs. Phone calls are useful for longer conversations and for when video is not possible. Live chat lets people type thoughts in real time or send short check-ins between sessions. Both formats make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and provide flexible ways to keep in touch.
