Narrative Therapy in this listing
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.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Kristian directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

How narrative and practical approaches work online
Kristian blends narrative ideas with client-centered listening and cognitive tools to help people reshape stories and change day-to-day habits. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and looks for alternative plots that fit a person’s values and hopes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes attentive, nonjudgmental listening to help someone feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and testing practical changes to reduce distress.Choosing an approach is a team effort. Kristian will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they adjust methods over time so the work feels useful and doable rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online sessions offer real flexibility. Video calls let people speak face-to-face when a longer session is needed. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or the camera feels unnecessary. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or when someone needs support between longer meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
