After displaying interest in acting at a young age, Strickland commenced her studies, while working in minor roles in motion pictures by filmmakers such as M. Night Shyamalan and James Mangold.

On her career, Strickland herself commented, "it's been a dream. It really has. Everyone has been so focused and lovely and it's just wonderful...I'm gonna be whole hog with it and hopefully do it until I'm in the grave." Describing herself as a "method actor", Strickland has cited Jessica Lange, Holly Hunter, Diane Keaton and Jane Fonda as influences on her acting technique.
