About Kirsten
Kirsten King is an LCPC with 23 years of clinical experience. She offers steady, calm support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and big life changes. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental, focused on helping people find practical ways to feel better day to day.
Kirsten blends existential thinking with evidence-based methods to help clients face painful feelings and unclear choices. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and build coping skills.
Background and approach
Attachment-based and client-centered ideas shape how she works with relationship struggles and self-worth concerns. Her background includes long experience supporting people affected by trauma, domestic violence, chronic illness, and parenting strain. She also lists focus areas like ADHD, bipolar concerns, anger, sleep problems, and compassion fatigue.
That range means she often helps people untangle overlapping problems and prioritize what to tackle first. Kirsten practices from Montana and conducts sessions by video, phone, chat, or messaging to fit different schedules. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and costs vary by location and therapist availability.
New clients begin by using the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire, then scheduling sessions to match the therapist's calendar. Kirsten emphasizes collaboration - setting goals together and adapting the approach as needs shift.

Online support
How Kirsten’s Approaches Work Online
Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and the feelings that come with major life transitions. It supports honest conversations about what matters and helps clients make decisions that fit their values.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting uncomfortable feelings while committing to actions that match personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with chronic problems by building small, consistent steps toward a chosen life.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current patterns. It helps with communication problems, self-esteem, and difficulties trusting others by exploring relational needs and building new ways of connecting.
Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities. That means checking in regularly and adjusting what they try together.
Online sessions can make therapy fit a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are handy when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for short check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make scheduling simpler and let people keep therapy going during life’s disruptions.
