More about Krista

  • 12 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello! My name is Krista. I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for 10 years. I am also a Certified Parent Coach. I have experience in counseling related to anxiety, depression, parenting, women's issues, and postpartum mood disorders. I have also worked extensively with military families.

I approach counseling with a non-judgmental attitude and aim to create a safe space for you. Within the therapeutic relationship, we will work together to establish goals to meet your individual needs. My goal is to support you as you navigate your unique situation and challenges. Life can be tough, but if you are exploring Better Help, you are on the right path to prioritizing your mental health.

Note: I do have very limited availability. My only openings are in the afternoons on week days only. Please review my schedule. If you do not have availability to match my schedule, please choose another therapist. I want to ensure you receive the support you deserve!

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
