Krissy Bynum, LCSW

Psychotherapist
CA
I believe in creating a therapeutic environment, which is essential for an individual to be able to express their concerns without judgment. This allows the individual the opportunity to come to an inviting place where one can speak openly and freely about concerns and/or struggles. As a therapist, I assist clients with developing their individualized goals and offer tools that can be implemented in their lives. My goal is to offer guidance and support, so clients can take steps to become the healthiest version of themselves. My work with clients focuses on fostering flexibility, authenticity, and healthy boundaries. I take a diverse therapeutic approach incorporating multiple models, e.g., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Psychodynamics. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth Behavioral Health. For my availability, please see my calendar and book an appointment with me via ZocDoc.
