About Kristen

Kristen Adriazola is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience. She practices in Washington and holds licenses in both Washington and Georgia. Kristen focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and challenges with self esteem.

She approaches sessions with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Kristen tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person's needs. She aims to make the therapy space straightforward and practical, helping clients break down problems into manageable steps.

Sessions often focus on improving communication, addressing attachment concerns, and working through guilt, shame, or isolation. When trauma or post-traumatic stress is involved, she helps people pace their work and build coping tools. Kristen also supports exploration of life purpose and growing self-love.

Her work balances addressing immediate stressors with longer term personal growth. Kristen checks in on what is most important to the client and adjusts plans as goals change. She encourages small, achievable changes that add up over time.

Kristen offers services in English and is licensed in GA as an LCSW and in WA as a LICSW. If you are unsure whether her approach is a match, she asks prospective clients to complete a short questionnaire to guide scheduling and the first session.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

The therapist uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and coping strategies. One common approach centers on building coping tools for anxiety and stress by teaching breathing, grounding, and problem-solving steps that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. These skills help people manage symptoms and regain routine control.

Another strand of work emphasizes relational patterns and attachment. This approach looks at how past relationships shape current interactions and helps clients practice communication changes and new ways of relating. It is useful for addressing relationship strain, improving communication, and reducing feelings of isolation or shame.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss your goals, try methods that match your needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Collaboration helps identify what feels most useful, whether the focus is coping with trauma, rebuilding self esteem, or improving family interactions.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm available options when you schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce commuting time, allow short check-ins on a workday, or avoid needing to be on camera if that feels more comfortable. Licensed professionals can adapt tools and exercises to work well in a remote setting while keeping sessions focused on practical change.
