Therapeutic approaches and online care with a licensed LCSW

Krishna commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy and collaboration to help clients explore their feelings and find their own solutions. This approach is helpful for building self-esteem, navigating relationship and family issues, and addressing the emotional impact of life transitions.

She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured method that helps clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and change patterns of behavior. CBT is effective for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and adjustment challenges by teaching practical coping skills.

Motivational Interviewing is another tool Krishna uses to support clients who are contemplating change, such as addressing addictions, health-related goals, or steps in parenting and caregiving roles. It focuses on strengthening motivation and resolving ambivalence in a respectful, nonjudgmental way.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be decided collaboratively. Krishna works with each client to tailor methods based on individual goals, needs, and preferences so therapy feels practical and personally relevant.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and access care from different locations. These options provide flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to choose the format that best supports their engagement and progress.
