Online support
How relationship work and online therapy come together
Krista uses the Gottman Method principles to notice how couples and partners communicate, manage conflict, and build friendship. This approach looks at real habits between people and offers concrete exercises to shift interaction patterns and improve closeness.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. Attachment-focused work can be useful for intimacy issues, trust concerns, and repairing connection after loss or conflict.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Krista will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. She treats the choice of tools as flexible and adjusts based on what helps most in sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions and exercises that benefit from visual contact. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, homework, and steady support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and reach consistent progress.
