Background and approach
Christina uses a mix of approaches to fit each situation. She draws on client-centered listening to understand what matters most. She adds cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Dialectical behavior ideas are used when emotion regulation and coping skills are needed. Work in sessions often looks like talking through recent problems, trying concrete skills between meetings, and checking what helped. She pays attention to how past family patterns and attachment issues affect current choices and relationships.
Christina also supports people coping with chronic illness, fertility and pregnancy-related stress, and postpartum changes. Clients can expect a calm, respectful conversation and a clear plan with goals they set. Christina describes options, adjusts pacing, and helps people pick strategies that fit their daily life.
Her approach centers on listening, practical steps, and steady support.
How Christina’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience. The therapist listens closely and follows the individual's pace, helping them name what matters and choose goals that feel right. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that cause distress. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, emphasizes building coping skills for intense emotions and improving communication; it can help with emotion regulation, relationship strain, and ongoing stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that honors personal preferences and real-life constraints while testing practical steps that can fit daily routines.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text let people share thoughts between calls or fit therapy into busy days. These options increase flexibility so therapy can fit around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
