Krista Asp , LPC

Krista Asp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on guiding people through personal and relationship growth and rediscovery. She earned her postgraduate degree from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, one of the relatively few programs accredited by CACREP, where her training emphasized cognitive and behavioral techniques as well as trauma-focused approaches.

Her practice centers on practical, solutions-focused work while maintaining unconditional positive regard for each person she sees. She supports clients through the therapeutic process with an emphasis on restoring balance in mental health and strengthening wellbeing within personal relationships. Each session is framed as an opportunity to explore values, patterns, and goals that help clients move toward a more authentic sense of self.

Postgraduate professional development has included training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), tools she incorporates when appropriate. She is comfortable working with both individuals and couples as they navigate life transitions and a range of mental health concerns. Krista welcomes the chance to accompany others on a thoughtful path toward healing and self-discovery.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online care

Krista Asp integrates evidence-informed approaches to meet each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps repair trust and closeness in intimate and family relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - it offers practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) provides a structured method for processing traumatic memories and reducing the emotional intensity tied to past events.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Krista works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best align with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She tailors care as needs evolve rather than relying on a single technique.

Online therapy makes these approaches more accessible through flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - so people can fit care into busy schedules, manage caregiving or work responsibilities, and continue therapy during life transitions. Licensed professionals can use these modalities effectively to support progress and maintain continuity of care.
