About me
Hello! I am a licensed professional counselor and a certified mental health therapist in the state of Mississippi with 15 years of experience in the field of mental health with 12.5 of those years as a counselor/therapist. I have worked with every population of clients throughout my years of experience. I have diagnosed and treated various mental health issues, including depression, stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, relationship deficits, and anger management. Other areas of focus that I have addressed include personality issues, blended family issues, caregiver issues and stress, codependency, commitment issues, communication problems, intellectual disability, OCD, paranoia, DMDD, drug and alcohol addiction, and narcissism.
In regards to my counseling style, I believe that the best way to form a therapeutic alliance is to build rapport with each of my client. Also, I am very open, sympathetic, empathetic, and non-judgmental. In my opinion, everyone needs someone to talk to because we all experience unexpected events that affect us negatively in life. The best way to overcome these unexpected events is to find positive coping mechanisms that help an individual to move forward without looking back continuously. Moreover, my clinical approaches include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. I will utilize the most appropriate clinical approach with each of my clients based on his or her areas of need.
Furthermore, being able to take the step to seek counseling is no small feat, and it shows that you are willing to change. I am here to support, direction, encourage, and motivate you to improve your relationship concerns.
Thank you for the opportunity to work with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Kristina Thompson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Dr. Thompson is extremely wonderful. She is very kind and is so willing to help. My husband and I appreciate her so much.
Dr. Thompson has been a tremendous help in some of the most difficult times in my life. Navigating marriage. Deciphering between parental expectations as a new parent. The death of my mother. She's been so sweet and so honest. She allows me to freely speak, and she listens with no intentions of just responding. I'm so thankful for her!!
Dr. Thompson is amazing! We enjoyed our session with her!
Dr. Thompson listens openly and then provides positive feedback. She gives us something positive to work on each week to try and grow ourselves and relationship. I really like her approach.
Dr. Thompson has been very helpful for me and my relationship. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a therapist.
Great job, very professional, caring and compassionate about her job. I wish I could talk to her everyday. She the best.
