About Crisinda

Crisinda Tackett welcomes people seeking help with relationships, family tensions, grief, parenting challenges, or coaching needs. With a focus on practical, compassion-driven support, she centers conversations on the concerns clients bring and partners with them to identify realistic goals and manageable steps forward.

Background and approach

Drawing on two decades of professional experience in Ohio, Crisinda combines client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques to address issues such as adoption and foster care transitions, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, substance-related problems, and family of origin patterns.

Her background includes lengthy work in school counseling, where she supported adolescents and families and addressed alcohol and drug addiction concerns. As a licensed professional counselor clinical (LPCC), she aims to create an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be expressed without judgment.

Crisinda emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies, helping clients navigate divorce and separation, communication and commitment struggles, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and other life stresses while honoring each person’s unique situation.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client work often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning, which can help with anxiety, mood challenges, and relationship patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and respect for each person’s perspective, creating space for clients to explore feelings and priorities at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist explores a client’s concerns, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods accordingly, combining techniques when helpful to support problem solving, grief work, parenting challenges, or communication improvements.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity when life is unpredictable, and select a format that feels most comfortable for ongoing work with a licensed professional.
