About Krista

Krista Holeman is a licensed independent mental health practitioner (LIMHP) based in Nebraska who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, substance concerns, and other life transitions.

Background and approach

With nine years as a licensed therapist and additional experience as a drug and alcohol counselor, she draws on practical therapy methods to support clients working toward clearer coping skills and improved emotional well-being. Her style emphasizes building a strong therapeutic connection and choosing interventions that fit each person’s needs.

Krista integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-informed work, client-centered principles, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques when appropriate. She brings experience addressing a wide range of concerns including mood disorders, trauma and abuse, parenting and family dynamics, intimacy and communication issues, addiction, and challenges related to ADHD and body image.

Krista aims to collaborate with clients to set achievable goals and find a better balance among life roles. She practices in Nebraska and offers sessions in English, meeting clients through a variety of online formats to accommodate schedules and preferences.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Krista commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to build more effective coping strategies. ACT helps clients clarify values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can be useful for stress, avoidance, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Krista works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences. She will discuss options, adapt techniques, and check in regularly so the plan evolves with progress and feedback.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to access therapy from home or other convenient locations, making it easier to maintain consistency while fitting treatment into daily life.
