About Trishka
Trishka Lampkin is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in California with 16 years of experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, identity questions, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Her work aims to create a warm, nonjudgmental place to talk and figure out practical next steps.
Trishka uses a mix of evidence-based methods to meet people where they are. She leans on approaches like cognitive behavioral strategies and acceptance-based work to help clients notice thoughts and choose values-driven actions.
Background and approach
Attachment-informed ideas are woven into her conversations about how people relate to each other and to themselves. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person sitting across from her. She listens for strengths, patterns, and what feels manageable right now.
Then she helps build skills for coping, communication, and emotional regulation that can be practiced between visits. Her background includes long-term clinical work with a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, substance issues, grief, parenting strains, sleep and eating struggles, and chronic health stressors. That experience informs a practical focus on day-to-day improvements and clearer choices.
Trishka emphasizes culturally aware care and affirming attitudes toward diverse identities. She supports people in exploring values, boundaries, and healthy change while keeping goals realistic. Her California license is LMFT, which stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.
Evidence-based approaches used in online sessions
Trishka commonly brings cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy into conversations. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce distress and solve practical problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people notice painful feelings without getting stuck and choose actions that match their values.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether CBT, ACT, attachment ideas, or a blend will best support the client's needs and day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to keep continuity between appointments, practice skills in real time, and check in between meetings when needed. Licensed professionals can use these options to provide consistent care while adapting to each person's routine and access needs.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
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.
