KRISTINA KOTECHA, LPC

KRISTINA KOTECHA is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 21 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and intimacy-related issues. She also works with depression, addictions, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and codependency. Sessions are conducted in English.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She adapts conversations and plans to fit each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all script. Sessions can include straightforward tools to reduce anxiety, clearer ways to communicate about relationships, and steps to manage urges or addictive patterns.

Kristina draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered work, mindfulness exercises, and solution-focused steps. She mixes listening with concrete tasks people can try between sessions. This can look like learning small behavior changes, practicing new ways to speak up, or noticing what values matter most.

Her background includes two decades of clinical work in Pennsylvania. That experience informs how she helps people sort through family history, caregiving stress, blended family dynamics, and challenges related to sexual expression or nontraditional relationship patterns. She also supports people navigating avoidant or dependent personality patterns and neurodiversity concerns like autism or Asperger syndrome.

People who come to her often want clearer boundaries, less people-pleasing, or a plan to manage life changes. To start, she asks about current struggles, what has helped before, and what a reasonable next step looks like.
