About Kristine

Dr. Kristine (Kristy) Eaton brings three decades of mental health experience to her practice in Indiana. She is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - and focuses on helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relationship strain.

She often helps clients who are dealing with parenting worries, separation or divorce, blended family challenges, or the fallout from adoption and foster-care histories. She also works with people facing caregiver stress, body image concerns, codependency, and issues tied to family of origin and abandonment.

Background and approach

In sessions she creates a calm, open space for honest talk. She listens carefully and asks questions that help people tell their stories differently. Conversations aim to clarify what matters now and what small changes could make daily life easier.

Her approach draws on Narrative ideas alongside client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, and mindfulness practices. That lets her use stories, practical skills, and moment-to-moment awareness depending on what a person needs. She works with adults who want straightforward help sorting feelings, improving communication, or rebuilding confidence.

Taking a first step can feel hard, and she focuses on steady, manageable steps toward clearer thinking and better coping.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Dr. Eaton uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach helps when old patterns or family histories keep shaping everyday choices and feelings.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on empathetic listening and responding to what the person says. That approach supports people who need acceptance and steady, nonjudgmental feedback as they sort out concerns.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice small, testable changes. CBT skills are useful for anxiety, low mood, and building confidence through concrete steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then try options in session to see what helps most. The plan can change as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and shared visuals, phone sessions work well when video is not practical, and live chat or text-based messaging let people check in between appointments or use shorter check-ins. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while maintaining regular contact with a licensed therapist.
