About Christina
Dr. Christina Jurekovic starts from a person-centered, client-focused approach that keeps the person's needs in view. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who aims to make sessions feel calm and practical.
Many people come for help with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, parenting strain, or life transitions. She has worked in counseling since 2014 and brings eleven years of experience to her practice. Her background includes roles as a school counselor and as a professor of clinical mental health counseling.
Background and approach
Those roles shaped how she balances practical strategies with emotional support. In sessions she uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try small changes. She also uses client-centered and existential ideas to focus on personal values and meaning.
Motivational interviewing is part of her approach when people want help making decisions or building new habits. Dr. Jurekovic helps with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, ADHD, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care issues, chronic illness, and parenting challenges.
She also supports people dealing with career questions, fertility or fertility-related stress, and communication problems. People can expect clear, everyday language in sessions and steps they can try between meetings. She works from Colorado and conducts therapy in English.
The goal is practical progress and stronger coping over time.
Approach and online session options that fit your life
Dr. Jurekovic blends client-centered care with tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to address everyday struggles. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's perspective to help them feel heard and make their own choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical steps to try different responses. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and help with stress and anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, values, and preferences. That collaboration may mean starting with brief skill practice, then shifting to deeper questions about meaning and values if that fits the person's needs.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls are useful for conversations that benefit from face-to-face connection. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
