About Remmawii
Remmawii (Karuna) Kristjanson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing addictions, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and major life changes. She brings three decades of experience to conversations about workplace stress, attachment wounds, and finding life purpose. Her style feels calm and practical, and she focuses on building skills clients can use between sessions.
Her background includes long periods living in India and Canada before settling in Georgia, which informs her awareness of cross-cultural issues. She blends talk therapy with somatic practices like breathwork, gentle yoga, guided meditation, art, and journaling when appropriate. These body-focused tools are offered to help reduce tension and support emotional regulation.
Remmawii frames therapy around each person’s needs. She uses cognitive and behavioral tools alongside acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice patterns and choose actions that match their values. She also draws on attachment-based and client-centered ways of working to explore relationship patterns and difficult feelings.
Clients can expect a respectful, compassionate approach that pays attention to culture, spirituality, and life context. Sessions are shaped around specific goals such as managing cravings, coping with loss, repairing communication, or navigating workplace strain. The therapist emphasizes practical steps and reflective work so people can move toward more balanced daily life.
Her credentials are LCSW and CSW and she practices in Georgia. She offers support to international clients and tailors plans to each person’s situation and goals.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choosing actions that match what matters most. It can help when people struggle with avoidance, persistent worry, or life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early and current relationship patterns to understand how people connect, react, and sometimes protect themselves; it can be useful for healing relational wounds and improving communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their needs and goals. That choice is guided by symptoms, life context, and personal preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online therapy can make it simpler to fit sessions into a busy life, by reducing travel time and enabling regular check-ins from wherever a person is located. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people find that combining talk-based methods with short somatic practices or journaling between sessions helps transfer gains into daily routines.
