My name is Dr. Krista Nelson, and I have extensive training in the multidimensional diagnosis and treatment of mood and anxiety disorders, addiction issues, trauma-related mental health concerns, eating disorders, personality disorders, and more. I believe in the power of therapy to assist healing for my clients. I am predominantly a CBT therapist, but I have an extensive toolbox of training utilizing other therapeutic techniques. As a clinician, I believe that the first step to improving mental health issues is the development of rapport and trust between the client with their therapist. I want to see you feel better!
I am trained as a Counseling Psychologist. I received my PhD in 2012 from Louisiana Tech University in Counseling Psychology. Additionally, I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Arkansas since 2004. I have extensive treatment experience working with adolescents and children as well as adults.
In therapy, I want my clients to feel it is a collaborative relationship where we establish goals for them and work together. I am a proponent of improving self-esteem. I believe that improving feelings of self-value enhance the treatment experience. During my therapy sessions, often self-esteem is addressed to identify how to improve self-worth feelings.

I work on building relationships with clients who are struggling with various mental health issues. Our initial sessions will focus on identifying some of the potential causes or contributors impacting my client's feelings, behaviors, or thoughts. The goal is to aid my clients in feeling better, and most do see a gradual improvement in their symptomology within weeks of beginning counseling.

I am predominantly a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, but I utilize techniques in my clinical "toolbox" from other valid therapy approaches. I believe in the efficacy of CBT because it aids in recognizing the relationships between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. When we can change one component - like improving our thought processes or feelings - we typically see change elsewhere as well.
