About Kristy

Kristy LaMar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, depression, and the adjustments that come with life changes. Kristy also focuses on issues related to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, family-of-origin and family relationship difficulties, communication problems, and feelings of guilt, shame, or isolation.

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, creating space for honest conversation and practical problem solving. Kristy tailors her dialogue and treatment plans to reflect each clientâs unique circumstances, goals, and strengths. Whether the work centers on improving confidence, navigating parenting concerns, or finding greater purpose and self-love, she emphasizes collaboration and concrete strategies that align with clientsâ needs.

Evidence-Informed Care and Flexible Online Sessions

Kristy LaMar uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skill building and emotional support. One common approach emphasizes stress and anxiety management through skills such as breathing and grounding exercises, thought reframing, and step-by-step coping strategies to reduce overwhelm. Another area of focus is parenting and family work, offering communication tools, boundary-setting practices, and problem-solving methods that help caregivers navigate behavioral challenges and relationship patterns. She also integrates supportive interventions for life transitions and self-esteem work, helping clients identify values, set achievable goals, and build self-compassion.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kristy collaborates with each person to determine which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts the plan as progress is made and encourages open discussion about what feels most helpful so the work remains client-centered and practical.
