About Kristin

Kristin Fahey is a licensed clinical social worker in Georgia with 30 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQ-related concerns. She focuses on relationship and intimacy issues and aims to create a calm space where clients can speak openly about hard things.

Kristin uses clear, down-to-earth conversation to help people sort out what matters most to them. She listens without judgment and helps clients notice patterns that keep them stuck. Together they set practical goals and small steps that fit everyday life.

Her approach draws on methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These approaches are used to address anxiety, low mood, relationship struggles, and issues around identity and intimacy. Kristin also brings motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas when people need short-term direction.

Clients can expect someone who emphasizes respect, steady support, and realistic planning. Kristin helps people weigh options and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others. She encourages steady progress rather than sudden change.

Over three decades of practice have given her experience with a wide range of concerns, including caregiver stress, body image, addiction, grief around separation or divorce, family origin issues, and fertility struggles. She invites people to take the first step and offers practical help along the way.

How Kristin’s approaches translate to online work

Kristin commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven actions even when feelings are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kristin will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She collaborates on a plan and adjusts techniques as progress is made so the work stays useful and realistic.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for consistent check-ins during life transitions. They also make it simpler to continue work when schedules change, and shorter or more frequent check-ins can be arranged to match what someone needs.
