About Kristina
Kristina Dygulski is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship strain, grief, anger, bipolar mood challenges, and life transitions. Her work often centers on practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier.
She uses a calm, collaborative style that asks what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on listening first, then building coping skills that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Kristina encourages simple practices like breathing and grounding to reduce overwhelm in the moment. Her methods draw from attachment-based ideas, client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, and mindfulness. That mix lets her tailor sessions to problems like panic, impulsivity, substance use, codependency, and communication breakdowns.
She helps clients identify patterns from family of origin issues and abandonment wounds and then try new ways of relating. With 12 years in the field, Kristina emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes. She aims to help people gain insight, manage intense emotions, and make changes that last.
Sessions combine practical skill building with emotional processing. Kristina welcomes English-speaking adults in Florida who are ready to work on mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, ADHD challenges, or finding life purpose. Her approach is patient and pragmatic, helping people move forward with clearer thinking and more confidence.
How attachment work and skills-based therapy translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in relationships and where they come from. In sessions this means talking about how early connections affect current trust, closeness, and emotional reactions, then trying new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kristina will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean combining CBT skills with attachment-focused conversations and mindfulness exercises to address anxiety, trauma, or addiction concerns. Online therapy makes these approaches accessible across formats. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues for deeper work. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer a way to check in between sessions, practice skills in real time, and track progress without scheduling a full appointment. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while still working on meaningful change.Frequently asked questions
