Kristine Benson

Therapist
LPC

Hello! My name is Kristine. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with experience providing therapeutic services to adults, children, and couples. My experience spans several areas, including domestic violence, crisis intervention, substance abuse, family and relationship challenges, learning challenges, problem-solving skills, building resilience skills, career and vocational guidance, anger and stress management, emotional triggers, and life and resilience skills. My therapeutic treatment approaches are Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. My educational foundation is a Master's in Psychology, a second Master's in Psychology specializing in Family, Couples, and Individual Psychotherapy, and I will complete the Master's Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program in 2026. As a Therapist and Registered Nurse, I have a holistic approach. I have focused training and experience in many areas, including working with children in elementary school, inmates, and family violence prevention services. I have extensive experience with group counseling, individual counseling, couples and family counseling, and military services. I am a 24-year Air Force and Army Veteran with three combat deployments, and I bring a unique understanding of deployments and family separation. I stay current on the latest techniques and theories to provide the best services for my clients. In the very near future, I will be able to provide you with both therapeutic and medication support, reducing the number of providers and referrals needed to meet your healthcare needs. I am here to help, and I look forward to being a part of your journey.
