About Kristin

Kristin Danner is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Texas with 11 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and concerns related to sexual orientation and relationships. Her approach is practical and hopeful, aimed at building emotional strength step by step.

Kristin uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. She pairs that perspective with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and with techniques from dialectical behavior therapy to manage strong emotions.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear skills people can try between meetings. Her work addresses a broad range of concerns including abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, body image, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, and coping with disaster. She also supports people navigating avoidant or dependent personality patterns and those involved in kink or alternative sex culture who want nonjudgmental help.

Kristin aims to be straightforward in sessions. People can expect a supportive conversation, concrete strategies, and a plan for small, measurable changes. She encourages clients to name what matters most and then sets practical steps toward those goals.

Deciding on therapy is a big move, and Kristin treats that choice as the first sign of change. She works collaboratively to help people find clearer ways to handle hard moments and build toward a steadier life.

Online support

Attachment-informed and skills-based care online

Kristin blends attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people notice and change repeating dynamics. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so daily life feels more manageable. Dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete emotion regulation and interpersonal skills to cope with intense feelings and improve communication.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Kristin will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit those needs. Therapy is collaborative - she helps plan steps and adjusts methods based on what helps most in real life.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching new skills, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and keep progress moving forward.
