About Krista

Krista Asp is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on personal and relationship growth. She uses practical tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and changes in life. Her work also covers relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting concerns, and LGBT issues.

Krista relies on clear, steady support in sessions and keeps things solutions oriented. She blends talk-based approaches with targeted strategies so clients can practice new skills between meetings. Sessions aim to build coping skills and stronger communication in daily life.

Her background includes a post-graduate degree from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, a program accredited by CACREP. Since graduating she has continued professional development in mindfulness-based stress reduction and EMDR. Krista has six years of clinical experience working with a range of concerns.

She works with people on grief, trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and issues around body image and eating. She also addresses attachment concerns, blended family challenges, communication problems, and compassion fatigue.

Krista practices in Tennessee and offers therapy in English. Sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Therapy is delivered through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, a new client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds affect current relationships. In sessions this means noticing patterns in how people connect and learning new ways to ask for and respond to support. Client-Centered Therapy centers on working at the client’s pace with acceptance and empathy. This approach helps people feel heard while they identify goals and try out changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and then teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Krista will talk with each person about goals and life context, then suggest methods that fit those needs. She adapts tools over time so sessions stay focused on what the client wants to achieve.

Online therapy offers options that make it easier to keep therapy in a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deep conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief updates, coaching-style prompts, and ongoing momentum between longer sessions. These formats add flexibility for work schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or when leaving the house is difficult.
