About Kristie
Kristie Fleurimond is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on guiding people through stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Kristie also helps with relationship strain, family problems, self-esteem struggles, and challenges such as addiction and eating concerns.
She uses practical, talk-forward sessions where the client sets priorities and Kristie tailors the plan to fit those needs.
How Kristie works
Sessions tend to focus on skills people can use between meetings, clearer communication, and ways to manage strong emotions. She draws on evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to make those skills concrete. Kristie also employs Acceptance and Commitment Therapy principles to help people clarify values and commit to small, meaningful changes.
Trauma-focused techniques are used when past events are getting in the way of day-to-day functioning. Client-centered work informs the way she listens and responds, keeping the person and their goals in focus. Her style is respectful, sensitive, and direct.
She aims to create a steady, supportive space where people can talk through painful experiences and build better coping habits. The approach is practical and geared toward everyday life improvements. If someone is ready to take a first step, Kristie helps them map out a plan and figure out the next small actions.
She works in plain language and expects progress to come from ongoing, shared effort.

Online support options
Approaches used in online counseling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms of anxiety and mood disorders.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kristie will talk with each person about their goals, challenges, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. She adjusts the plan over time based on what is working and what the person finds helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into busy schedules. Video calls support a full-session conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging allows ongoing, flexible contact between meetings. These options help people access therapy from different locations and routines while keeping the work focused on practical steps and skills.
