About Krista
Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio with 5 years of experience, Krista Croyle focuses on addiction and mental health concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, anger, and coping with life changes. She also addresses communication problems, co-morbidity, drug and alcohol addiction, and compassion fatigue. Krista uses several therapeutic approaches to help people make practical changes and manage symptoms.
Krista frames sessions as interactive conversations rather than lectures. She combines client-centered techniques with cognitive-behavioral strategies and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing. That means she listens to what matters to the person first, then works on actionable steps such as behavior changes, coping skills, and communication practice.
Her background includes work with people experiencing incarceration histories and those navigating major life transitions. In session she avoids labels and focuses on problems people bring in plain terms. Treatment planning emphasizes readable goals and measurable steps.
Krista describes her style as respectful and sensitive. She adapts interventions to the individual and checks in about progress. Sessions typically mix talk with skill-building and problem-solving exercises.
People considering therapy will find an approach that blends supportive listening with practical tools. The process starts with identifying current struggles, then choosing methods from CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused work to address them.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities. The therapist listens closely and helps clarify goals before suggesting changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises to reduce anxiety, depression, or addiction-related patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills such as emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to manage strong feelings and relationship problems.Picking the right approach is a collaborative process. Krista will discuss options based on a person’s goals and daily challenges, then try methods that fit. Progress is checked regularly and strategies are adjusted when they aren’t helping.
Confirm the current session formats before booking since the original biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use skill practice and homework between sessions to reinforce what they learn in conversation.
