Krista Holeman , LIMHP

Krista Holeman brings 15 years of experience in the mental health field, including nine years practicing as a licensed therapist and drug and alcohol counselor. She earned a Master of Counseling from Doane University in Nebraska in 2015 and holds the LIMHP credential - Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner - licensed in Nebraska since 2018. Krista combines clinical training with hands-on experience to support people navigating a wide range of concerns.

Her professional background includes work with older adults, adolescents, individual adults, families, couples, and people coping with substance use issues. She draws from several therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), existential therapy, client-centered methods, reality therapy, narrative approaches, and solution-focused techniques, tailoring interventions to fit each person she works with. Building strong rapport is central to her practice, as she believes trust and collaboration help people confront problems and make meaningful progress toward their goals.

Outside of her clinical role she balances life as a wife and mother of three young children while remaining a daughter, sister, and friend. That personal perspective informs her interest in helping others find balance among life roles and discover greater purpose and meaning.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Krista Holeman

Krista Holeman uses evidence-informed approaches to help people address emotional and behavioral challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and coping under pressure. Client-centered therapy centers the person in their own healing - the therapist offers empathy, active listening, and support while the client leads the pace and focus of change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Krista collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time so the work feels relevant and effective. This collaborative process helps match interventions to what matters most to the individual.

Online sessions make it possible to access licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited mobility. These options allow people to engage in therapy from their own environments, maintain continuity of care, and combine formats as needed to fit changing circumstances.
