About Crishna
Crishna Wilburn is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) who centers her work on building trusting, practical relationships. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, LGBT concerns, relationship strain, trauma and family conflict. She aims to help people notice strengths they already have and use those strengths to move forward.
Crishna views each person as the expert on their own story. She offers steady support and coaching rather than telling people what to do.
Background and approach
Sessions are meant to be collaborative, with clear steps you can try between meetings. In sessions she listens for what matters most and helps set small, achievable goals. She uses techniques that address thinking patterns, attachment needs, and practical problem solving.
This can feel useful when coping with life changes, career stress, or compassion fatigue. Her background includes more than a decade of clinical work in Ohio as a Licensed Independent Social Worker. That experience informs how she helps people manage intense emotions like anger, process past abuse or trauma, and improve intimacy-related concerns.
Crishna encourages straightforward, goal-focused conversations that also make space for emotion. She supports people as they try new ways of relating, communicating, and making decisions about family matters. If you want a clinician who blends listening with action, she may be a good fit.
Practical approaches that translate well to online work
Crishna often draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and expectations, helping people notice patterns in how they connect with others. Client-centered Therapy is another key approach she uses, which means conversations focus on the person's experience and goals rather than a set agenda. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is also part of her toolkit and helps people identify thinking patterns that feed anxiety or depression and try different ways of responding.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then prioritize methods that feel practical and sustainable. This gives space to try things and adjust the plan based on what actually helps.
For practical online work, check which session formats are available before booking. Confirm the current session options when you sign up so you know how appointments are conducted. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also help people keep appointments around work or caregiving schedules and support steady progress through regular, goal-focused meetings.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
