Getting to know Kristin Hood

Are you looking for a safe space to identify and process your emotions? Searching for someone to talk through stressors beyond your family or friends? Interested in learning healthy coping skills to manage anxiety or better regulate your emotions? Want to talk to someone as you navigate a life transition or loss? I am a licensed clinical social worker originally from Colorado, now living in Austin for the past 12 years. I earned my Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas. Most of my experience comes from working as a school-based therapist. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families addressing a wide range of concerns, including trauma history, anxiety, depression, and grief/loss. I am passionate about mental health and dedicated to helping people.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space to express and process your emotions. My goal is to empower and equip you with tools and coping skills to reach your full potential and best manage your emotions and daily stressors. I hope you leave each session feeling heard and empowered.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
