About Crishna
Crishna Wilburn is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) based in Ohio who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. She also supports clients facing trauma, family conflict, intimacy concerns, and LGBT issues. Crishna centers the person’s experience and looks for strengths to build on during hard moments.
She believes the client is the expert in their own story and that change often begins with small, brave steps.
How Crishna works
Sessions emphasize practical problem solving and clear goals, and Crishna aims to provide steady support while people try new ways of coping. She encourages people to notice what’s already working and to use those skills more often.
Crishna draws on approaches like attachment-based work to look at relationship patterns, client-centered methods to keep the person’s priorities central, and cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas are used to set achievable goals and build momentum.
Her background includes a total of 12 years in professional practice, during which she has worked with a range of life stressors and emotional concerns. That experience informs a straightforward style that balances listening with practical suggestions. People who come to her can expect a collaborative pace and a focus on real-life changes.
Sessions are conducted in English and arrangements reflect Ohio practice. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling when they begin the intake process.

Online support options
How key approaches guide online sessions
Attachment-based work looks at how patterns from past relationships affect current connections and comfort with closeness. In online conversations this can mean noticing how you relate to others and trying small changes that feel manageable. Client-centered therapy focuses on what matters most to the person and follows their priorities, giving room for empathy and reflection while you decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often using short exercises between sessions to build new habits.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with the person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That process is collaborative and paced to what feels useful rather than forcing a single method.
Confirm the available session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it simpler to practice coping skills in real life between meetings and to bring immediate issues into discussion for timely problem solving.
