About Christina
Christina Durr is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 11 years of experience. She combines counseling and life coaching skills to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and major life changes.

Background and approach
Christina uses a mix of practical methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps spot unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Mindfulness techniques train attention and calm to reduce overwhelm.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes values and small meaningful steps. She often helps people manage relationships, parenting stresses, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges tied to ADHD. Christina also supports those coping with compassion fatigue and work-related strain.
In session she listens first, then works with each person to set clear, doable goals. Sessions can include direct skill practice, short exercises between meetings, and coaching-style planning when needed. The therapist adjusts pacing and tools to fit each person’s life and priorities.
Christina’s aim is to help people move forward with more clarity and useful skills.
Approaches that translate well to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values. In online sessions this often looks like setting short, practical actions and checking progress between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors; it fits well with video or chat because homework and behavior tracking are easy to share and review. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention and calming practices that can be guided during a session and then practiced between meetings to reduce stress and reactivity.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. Clients and the therapist work together to decide whether to focus on skills practice, values-based goals, or short-term problem solving.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share thoughts in the moment and fit therapy into busy days. These options make it easier to keep momentum and fit support into everyday life.
