About Krista Arrington
Krista centers her work on collaborative goal setting, practical problem solving, and ongoing progress monitoring within a validating and respectful therapeutic relationship. She believes the therapeutic relationship itself can be transformative, offering a way to recognize and shift patterns that no longer serve a client’s life.
Her clinical experience spans a wide range of concerns, including life transitions, relationship challenges, unhelpful behavioral patterns, family conflict, grief and loss, peri-menopause and menopause issues, and sleep difficulties. She also has special knowledge related to learning disabilities, neuro-diverse learners, and special education, and she supports clients who want to explore parenting dynamics connected to those areas.
Krista’s counseling style is empathic, thoughtful, straightforward, and authentic. Her approach integrates mindfulness-based practices, cognitive behavioral strategies, family systems thinking, and positive behavioral support techniques. She adapts interventions to fit each client’s needs and goals, weaving in practical, uncomplicated skills and occasional moments of humor to support emotional well-being. Krista aims to help clients manage immediate concerns, examine unhelpful response patterns, and adopt simple practices that foster resilience.

Could Remote Therapy Fit Your Needs?
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or managing life changes, research indicates that online therapy can be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
A primary benefit is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that fits their life and comfort level - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which often makes it simpler to maintain consistent care. This variety of options helps people integrate therapy into busy schedules and to access support from different locations.
Licensed professionals who offer remote services bring clinical training and therapeutic skills to these formats, and clients may request a different therapist if they do not feel the fit is right. For many individuals, online therapy provides a practical, accessible path to working on relationship issues, coping skills, mood concerns, and other everyday challenges with a trained therapist.
