Crisinda Tackett , LPCC

Crisinda Tackett is a licensed professional counselor in Ohio with 20 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate complex life challenges. As an LPCC - a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - she combines clinical training with practical experience to support people facing relationship strains, family conflict, grief and loss, and the demands of parenting school-aged children. Her background also includes executive coaching, which complements her therapeutic work by focusing on goal setting and practical strategies for change.

For 15 years Crisinda worked as a school counselor, providing support to adolescents and their families and addressing issues that include alcohol and drug addictions. She draws on that school setting experience when working with families and young people, and brings attention to patterns that affect family dynamics and individual well-being. Crisinda creates an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. She considers it a privilege to walk alongside clients through difficult seasons and to help them identify steps toward healthier relationships and more balanced lives.

Therapeutic Approaches for Flexible Online Care

Crisinda draws from Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the conversation and explore what matters most to them - an approach that often helps with relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and grief. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT can be effective for managing stress, communication problems, and impulsivity by teaching practical skills and strategies. Motivational Interviewing is another tool in her work, focused on helping people clarify their goals and build internal motivation for change - a useful approach for issues like addiction, commitment concerns, and readiness for transitions.

Crisinda views finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques over time as progress unfolds. The aim is to match approach and pace to the client rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and connect with a licensed professional from locations across Ohio.
