Trishka Lampkin is a California licensed marriage and family therapist with 16 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Trishka centers sessions on respect and cultural awareness, and she creates a calm, affirming space for people to talk about hard things.
She helps people work through trauma, identity questions, and changes in life. Her style is collaborative and strengths-based - she listens first, then offers tools that fit each person's situation. She often supports LGBTQ+ people and people of color who face added pressures in daily life.
Trishka uses several practical, evidence-informed approaches. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking, and on acceptance-based strategies to build clearer values and choices. She also leans into attachment-focused work to help people understand relationship patterns.
In sessions, clients practice small, doable skills for stress, sleeping, eating, and mood. Trishka also helps people rebuild self-esteem and cope with grief, compassion fatigue, or caregiving strain. She tailors pacing to each person, offering both short-term problem-solving and longer-term work when needed.
People who prefer a respectful, down-to-earth therapist often find her approach useful. If you want straightforward tools and a space to make sense of difficult feelings, she can help you map next steps toward better daily functioning and stronger self-regard.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and building self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which often helps with stress, sleep, and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help people improve intimacy and relationship understanding.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process guides whether sessions emphasize values work, skill building, or attachment-focused exploration.
Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to keep steady progress during life transitions and to use exercises and worksheets between sessions to reinforce new habits.
