About Ksenia
Ksenia Krasnikov is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 13 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, address relationship concerns, build self-esteem, and cope with depression and life changes. She works with issues such as social anxiety and phobia, caregiver stress, and feelings of isolation.
Ksenia keeps conversations direct and practical. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing clearer ways of thinking and behaving. She uses techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns that keep problems going and to practice small, concrete changes.
Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach for people who want clearer goals or more momentum. That method helps clients clarify what they want to change and find their own reasons to move forward. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term targets and build on what already works in a person's life.
In the room, Ksenia aims to break larger problems into manageable steps. She talks through practical strategies for communication, impulse control, and coping with life transitions. She also supports people dealing with pregnancy and childbirth changes, mood concerns, and questions about life purpose.
Her practice is straightforward and goal-oriented. People who prefer clear tools and measurable steps often find this helpful. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed online and a first session is scheduled.
How Ksenia uses evidence-based approaches online
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing, used in plain terms. CBT looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety going and introduces small experiments and practice to try different responses. Motivational Interviewing focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and finding practical reasons to take steps toward change. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set specific, short-term goals and build on what already works in daily life.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will listen to a person's concerns, discuss options, and try methods that match the client's goals and preferences. Together they adjust the plan as progress and challenges become clearer.
