About Krista
Krista Hanks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed by stress, or unsure about what comes next after changes in work, relationships, or health. Krista helps people with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and ADHD concerns, and she also supports those wrestling with life purpose questions.
She focuses on clear, practical steps during sessions. Krista talks through what matters most now and helps clients try out small changes between meetings. Conversations often cover patterns of attachment, communication problems, and ways to manage panic or chronic illness symptoms so daily life becomes more manageable.
Krista uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs. She pays attention to how past abandonment, guilt, or shame show up in current relationships and everyday choices. Work on body image, eating-related concerns, and control issues looks at thoughts, behaviors, and concrete strategies to shift them.
Sessions also address isolation, jealousy, divorce or separation, and family conflict as they affect an individual. People who want to explore purpose, forgiveness, or rebuilding after loss can expect focused conversations with actionable takeaways. Krista encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes.
She practices in Texas and holds the LPC credential. Sessions are conducted in English. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first meeting.
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Krista draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common problems like anxiety, depression, and trauma. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new ways of responding; this helps reduce intense worry and improve mood through practical skill building. Another approach looks at attachment patterns and relationships, helping people notice how past losses or abandonment affect current interactions and choices.Finding the right approach happens together. Krista will discuss different methods with each person and decide what seems most useful based on needs, goals, and preferences. The process is collaborative and may change as priorities shift over time.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or let someone avoid travel time. Talk with Krista through the site's scheduling steps to learn which session formats are offered and what will work best with everyday life.
