Getting to know Krista Simmons

Hi there, I'm Krista! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Walla Walla University, providing Telehealth services to individuals and couples. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and relationship issues, having received extensive training in these areas. I am committed to creating a safe and compassionate space where a strong therapeutic relationship can be built from the first session. Through a highly interactive approach and advanced techniques, I help clients identify what is holding them back and work together to develop healthier relationships and enhance personal and professional achievements. My approach I utilize a variety of evidence-based approaches to support your individual and relationship needs. For couples, I specialize in the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which focus on strengthening communication, deepening emotional connection, and resolving conflicts. For individuals, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I also incorporate neuroscience research to help you understand your brain’s role in emotions and behaviors, empowering lasting change. My approach is tailored to each client, ensuring we work in a way that fits your unique needs and goals. My focus I specialize in working with professionals in high-pressure fields such as aviation, healthcare, and other high-responsibility roles. Drawing from my experience and approach, I’ve found my style resonates with individuals navigating life stressors and seeking to enhance personal and professional skills. Whether managing work challenges or striving for emotional balance, I’m here to support your journey.
