Hi, I'm Krisha, and I'm not going to be a "blank slate." That's what ChatGPT is for. I believe you deserve to work with a real human being - someone who's likely powered by caffeine and some dark humor, not someone pretending they have no reactions to what you're sharing. Therapy with me is engaging and challenging, like solving a jigsaw puzzle. We work to build the whole picture together while you learn tools to notice patterns and bring about real change. My approach is person-centered, which means I follow your lead and work with you as an equal. I also make really bad jokes, so hope you're ready for that.
I work with children and young adults dealing with trauma, depression, and anxiety, as well as people from the LGBTQ+ community navigating identity, relationships, and self-acceptance. I also support people dealing with neurodiversity, mood concerns, and the challenges that come with daily life.
My own therapy taught me that no matter what happens, I'll be fine. This belief has been so supportive and hopeful as I navigate life, and it's something I hope you'll discover too. I know how scary it is to open up to someone new, especially after a bad experience. But taking that step, despite the fear, can lead you toward real change.
