About Kristine

Kristine Mayer is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Oklahoma with 35 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship concerns, and issues connected to family of origin. She also supports people facing caregiver strain, aging-related concerns, chronic illness, and challenges related to ADHD or being LGBT.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on clear problem-solving, understanding patterns that come from childhood, and practical skills to manage day-to-day life. Kristine uses client-centered listening alongside narrative and mindfulness work to help people notice recurring roles and beliefs that affect decisions now.

She brings long experience from inpatient and outpatient settings and has taught as an adjunct professor locally. That background informs how she structures sessions, balances coping strategies with reflection, and connects clinical ideas to everyday routines. Hypnotherapy and guided imagery are among the methods she can use when appropriate.

Kristine is familiar with hospice and end-of-life counseling, first responder and medical worker stress, and caregiver burnout. She also has experience supporting people impacted by trauma and loss, including veterans and survivors of large-scale atrocities mentioned in her background.

Practical matters are part of her work. She conducts sessions by phone and by live chat (typed). People who want to start are invited to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how her ways of working fit their needs.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Kristine often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions focus on listening carefully and following the client's concerns. This approach helps people clarify what matters to them and feel heard while deciding on next steps.

She also draws on Narrative Therapy, inviting clients to tell the stories that shape their choices. Rewriting or re-examining those stories can reduce the power of recurring family roles and expectations. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build attention to present-moment experience, which can help with anxiety, sleeping problems, and stress management.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristine discusses methods with each person and adjusts based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds. She aims to match practical tools and reflective work to what a person wants to change.

Practical benefits of working this way include fitting sessions into a busy week and having flexible ways to check in without travel. The therapist currently offers sessions by phone and live chat (typed), so confirm those options when booking. Many people find that scheduled phone or chat sessions make it easier to keep continuity of care while juggling work, caregiving, or other commitments.
