About Kristine

Dr. Kristine Quallich is a licensed psychologist practicing in Ohio and California. She brings 28 years of experience working with people on stress, anxiety, depression, mood concerns, and everyday habits like sleep and eating. Her work includes support around parenting, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and ADHD-related challenges. She also helps with career stress, grief, and problems tied to body image or self-esteem.

Before moving into community therapy, she spent over 25 years in education as a Certified School Psychologist helping students and families with academic and behavioral concerns. That background shaped a practical, results-focused approach to day-to-day challenges. She has experience in anger management, employment-related issues, and various family concerns from that setting.

Her clinical style centers on cognitive-behavioral methods combined with client-centered care. She uses strategies that look at thoughts and everyday habits to help people change what they do and how they think. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques also appear in her work to build coping skills and small, manageable changes.

She has taught at Kent State University and continues to blend teaching with practice. Outside of work she values meditation and regular exercise, and emphasizes helping people find meaning and direction. Her dual licensure is listed as CA Psychologist 34986 and OH Psychologist P.6408.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and situations where people feel stuck by their thinking. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship and helps people reflect on their own goals and choices.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what methods feel most useful. Together they adjust strategies as needed so the work matches day-to-day needs and priorities.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives by reducing travel and letting people schedule appointments around work or caregiving. Video or phone options may suit different needs; confirm the specific session formats offered before booking. The emphasis is on practical ways to practice new habits and thought strategies between sessions so changes can be applied in everyday routines.
