About Kriss

Dr. Kriss Wiant is an Ohio licensed psychologist with three decades of experience helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, anger, ADHD, and related mood and personality issues. He holds the credential OH Psychologist P.4840, which indicates his licensure to practice psychology in Ohio, and he brings a background as a military veteran, a former high school teacher, and a psychologist who has worked in varied professional settings. This mix of life and professional experience shapes a practical, empathetic approach that respects each person as an individual while focusing on concrete steps toward better functioning and well-being.

He emphasizes close, steady attention to a person’s perceptions, beliefs, and feelings and fosters a collaborative working relationship that seeks to identify the sources of a presenting concern, uncover internal resources for change, and set achievable short-term goals. Assessment of habitual thinking patterns and inaccurate self-views is a routine part of his work, along with targeted skill development to address barriers to progress. Techniques may include strategies to promote more rational thinking, communication skills training, and methods tailored to interpersonal or occupational difficulties.

Dr. Wiant encourages prospective clients to take time to find a good fit and to ask questions about their care. He views therapy as a shared responsibility and aims to guide people toward clearer self-understanding and practical, self-selected goals for improved functioning and relationships.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Dr. Kriss Wiant commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide remote work. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the person’s experience from their own perspective and building a trusting, collaborative relationship that supports self-directed change; it is helpful for issues involving self esteem, relationship concerns, and emotional processing. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving in daily life. Mindfulness-based elements may also be integrated to help manage mood and increase present-moment awareness when appropriate.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Wiant works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress unfolds. That collaborative planning helps ensure therapy stays focused and relevant.

Online sessions with Dr. Wiant are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to receive consistent support from licensed professionals without travel, allowing therapy to fit into daily life and to continue even when circumstances change.
