More about Krista

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 5 years of experience working as a counselor in California. I have experience working with a number of issues including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship and family conflict, co-parenting, trauma and abuse, OCD, and more. I am comfortable working with individuals, couples, families and group therapy.

I work with clients using a nonjudgemental, warm and compassionate approach. I am interactive with my clients and believe in working collaboratively to achieve their goals. I use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy as well as a Narrative Therapy Approach. I also have experience with Motivational Interviewing. I will tailor my approach to best fit your needs and treatment goals.

I believe that if you "change your mind, you change your world." I am here to support you in your journey to living your best life. I will ask you questions you've never been asked before and offer a respectful and compassionate approach to your concerns.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
