Background and approach

Christine often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change small behaviors that make daily life harder. She also brings elements of dialectical behavior ideas to teach emotional regulation and coping skills. Sessions focus on practical steps and steady problem solving.

Christine listens without judgment and adapts sessions to meet each person's needs. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, and codependency patterns that affect relationships. She also supports people facing complex health or life challenges, including chronic pain, cancer, caregiver stress, and co-occurring conditions.

When trauma, dissociation, or disruptive mood patterns are part of the picture, she works at a pace the client can manage while building skills to feel safer in daily life. Christine offers a straightforward, respectful style that combines talking, skills practice, and plan-making. Her goal is to help people find clearer choices and more effective ways to handle hard moments.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people set their own goals. In sessions the therapist reflects concerns, helps prioritize what matters most, and supports people as they try new ways of coping. This approach helps with stress, grief, self-esteem, and parenting strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches specific skills to notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises, homework between sessions, and step-by-step plans for reducing anxiety or depression symptoms.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These techniques are practical for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulsive behaviors, and they can be practiced during or between online sessions.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That shared planning lets the client influence the pace and focus of therapy.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video lets people practice conversation and body language, phone uses less bandwidth, live chat supports short check-ins, and messaging can be used for brief updates or ongoing skill reminders.
