Getting to know Kristi Aiello

Hello, I'm Kristi. I grew up in a small town in Upstate New York and moved to Austin, Texas in 2015. Since moving to Texas, I have worked in various settings within the local mental health authority (LMHA), primarily with adults living with severe mental health diagnoses and co-occurring disorders. I utilize a strengths-based, person-centered approach and believe the key to personal growth is through honesty and commitment to make desired changes. I recognize that entering therapy can be a difficult decision and commend you on making these initial steps. I specialize in adult behavioral health, including individuals experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, substance use, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder/schizophrenia, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I also have experience working with folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities (ID/DD). I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques, which are aimed to reduce and better manage symptoms of mental health disorders. I am also certified in cognitive processing therapy (CPT), which is used to help alleviate symptoms of PTSD in response to past traumatic experiences. I also incorporate dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), including mindfulness techniques, as appropriate. Throughout our work together, you can expect a supportive and non-judgmental environment where your strengths are recognized and built upon. My goal is to help you navigate through your challenges and achieve your personal goals. I look forward to getting to know you throughout this journey.
