Thank you for visiting my page. I began Krista's Counseling and Consulting to support individuals achieve mental health goals through compassion, trust, and safety. I have over 20 years of experience helping diverse individuals recover from trauma, depression, grief, anxiety, and overall life stressors. I specialize in women's and men's issues, having worked in women shelters and for the Department of Veterans Affairs. I have tremendous respect for individuals who choose to seek counseling. I specialize in helping adolescents through seniors. The therapy is for you and about you.
My therapeutic model emphasizes trust and transparency. Beginning counseling is a vulnerable time, and the persons ability to feel comfortable is the first step. My strength-based therapy revolves around emotional needs, which includes cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and survivor-centered approaches.
Please consider reaching out for a free 15-minute consultation or to schedule an appointment. My style involves creating a place for peace to improve emotional wellness. My therapy is not rushed and takes the time to see the situation from the person's point of view, while empowering confidence to engage more in life.
