About Krista
Krista Asp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee. She focuses on personal and relationship growth, helping people find balance after stress, loss, or major life changes. Her approach centers on practical steps you can use between sessions.
Krista uses a client-centered style that keeps the person’s goals at the forefront. She also draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Sessions often include mindfulness-based stress reduction tools learned through her post-graduate professional development.
She has six years of clinical experience and works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Krista also supports those managing ADHD, parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and challenges around body image and eating.
In couples work she uses emotionally-focused and attachment-based ideas to improve connection and communication. She also incorporates EMDR strategies for trauma when appropriate.
Krista describes therapy as a collaborative process. She aims to maintain unconditional positive regard while helping clients set clear, achievable steps. Sessions are practical, with a focus on helping people rediscover themselves and strengthen relationships.
To begin, a client selects Start Therapy, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to Krista’s availability. The session plan and goals are worked out together in the first appointments.
How Krista’s approaches work in online therapy
Krista uses attachment-based and client-centered ideas alongside cognitive behavioral techniques to guide work in therapy. Attachment-based work looks at how close relationships shape feelings and reactions, and it helps people improve connection and trust. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and pace, letting the client lead while the therapist offers empathy and reflection. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Krista will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions are used to set goals and test ways of working together rather than locking into a single method from the start.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, reduce travel time, and let people practice skills in their everyday environment. Licensed professionals can still use attachment, client-centered and CBT techniques effectively over distance when the format matches the client’s needs.
