Getting to know Krista Mills

UpLift Behavioral Health providers do not issue prescriptions for substances controlled by any federal or state agency or other drugs that may be harmful because of their potential for abuse. UpLift Behavioral Health reserves the right to limit the types of medications that may be prescribed by its doctors and nurse practitioners. All prescriptions furnished by UpLift Behavioral Health care providers are issued in accordance with applicable federal and state law as well as UpLift Behavioral Health policy. I possess a Master's in Social Work and a Bachelor's degree from Salisbury University, along with 3 years of experience working in hospice settings and over 18 years of experience supporting patients in the community who have severe and debilitating mental illness. This background has prepared me to work with people who are grieving as well as those experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, and co-occurring substance misuse. I utilize a Person-Centered approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused interventions when working with clients, as I strongly believe in meeting you where you are in the healing process.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am here to meet you where you are and help you get to where you want to be or become. I am person-centered in my approach that utilizes multiple interventions and approaches based in DBT, CBT, Solution Focused, Insight Oriented, Grief and Trauma. I am compassionate, genuine and empathic. I have been in the mental health field almost 20 years working with those that struggle with severe and persistent mental illness, trauma and addictions.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I strongly believe in meeting clients where they are in the healing process. I utilize multiple approaches that best fit the client's needs. This could range from using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to Insight-Oriented and Solution Focused approaches. This allows the client to gain insight and learn alternative behavioral reactions or coping strategies.
