01About Kyria
Kyria Chrisp-Stashak is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings ten years of experience to sessions. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and issues tied to addiction and identity. Her style is straightforward and supportive.
Kyria creates space for honest conversation without judgment. She focuses on practical ways to manage overwhelming feelings and get through day-to-day challenges. Sessions often include talking through recent events, identifying patterns that cause pain, and trying new ways to handle difficult moments.
Background and approach
Kyria pays attention to how past relationships shape current reactions, including attachment and abandonment concerns. Many clients seek help for intimacy or parenting worries, problems with communication, or struggles with mood disorders such as bipolar. She also supports people dealing with isolation, jealousy, infidelity, and blended family tensions.
Work with substance use and co-occurring issues is part of her background as well. Her approach is adaptable; she matches methods to what a person needs at the time. That could mean short-term skills for coping with panic or longer work on relationship patterns and family of origin themes.
Cultural background and military or veteran issues are considered when relevant. People meet with Kyria by phone, video, live chat, or text messaging. She practices in Alaska and conducts sessions in English.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client's routine.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Many of Kyria's methods focus on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage strong emotions and change unhelpful patterns. One common approach involves skills-based work to reduce anxiety and improve day-to-day coping; this teaches concrete strategies to calm the body and refocus thinking when stress rises. Another approach looks at relationship and attachment patterns to understand how past connections influence current reactions; this helps with intimacy issues, communication problems, and feelings of abandonment.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences, and the problems that matter most. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what feels useful and realistic for the client's life.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow fuller conversations when face-to-face interaction helps, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, emotional grounding, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules and to keep treatment consistent over time.
