About Krista
Krista Spaeth is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, relationship strain, and issues related to LGBT identity. She focuses on building practical skills and clearer communication so daily life feels more manageable. Her tone is warm and respectful and she aims to meet people where they are.
With six years of clinical experience, Krista draws on evidence-based techniques to shape a plan that fits each person's situation.
Background and approach
She works with concerns such as self-esteem, motivation, isolation, and mood difficulties. She also supports people facing family conflict, divorce and separation, and problems rooted in family of origin. Krista pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns and helps people who struggle with control or dependent personality patterns.
She talks through communication problems and relationship patterns in straightforward terms. Gender dysphoria, guilt and shame, and forgiveness are also among topics she addresses in sessions. She offers a collaborative approach where the goals and pace are set together.
Conversations tend to be practical - identifying small changes, practicing new responses, and checking how they feel in real life. Krista tailors the plan to each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Krista is licensed in Wisconsin as an LMFT.
Sessions are conducted in English and are offered using several online formats to suit different schedules and preferences. Starting therapy begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How therapeutic methods meet online care
Krista uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and clearer relationships. One common approach emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety and stress through step-by-step practice and behavioral experiments that a person can try between sessions. Another approach centers on attachment and relationship patterns - identifying recurring dynamics, improving communication, and trying new ways of relating to reduce conflict and isolation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Krista will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they set goals, track progress, and adjust methods if something is not working well.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and face-to-face connection. Phone sessions can fit a lunch break or times with lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping focus on progress and practical change.
