More about Krista

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMSW

As a licensed therapist in Michigan, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on a Dialectical Behavior Therapy approach along with trauma informed care, with a deep commitment to helping clients heal from challenging life experiences. I focus on empowering individuals struggling with social anxiety, mood disorders, and personal transitions while offering compassionate support for women's mental health challenges.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in understanding each person's unique journey. I work collaboratively with clients experiencing postpartum depression, caregiver stress, and those working through experiences of sexual assault or abuse. By creating a supportive environment, I help individuals develop resilience, cultivate self-love, and rediscover their sense of purpose.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients in developing effective coping strategies for ADHD, managing life changes, and addressing underlying emotional patterns. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build stronger, more authentic connections with yourself and others.

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.
