About Christine
Christine Weber is a licensed mental health counselor with 37 years in the field. She holds the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential and the Licensed Professional Counselor credential and practices from Rhode Island. She writes plainly and aims to make therapy approachable for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, or life changes.
She trained at Rhode Island College, earning a bachelor's degree in psychology and justice studies and a master’s in agency counseling.
Background and approach
She also completed a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in rehabilitation counseling, which supported licensure in multiple states. Over decades of work she has focused on mood disorders, trauma and substance use concerns. Her day-to-day approach is straightforward.
She uses client-centered conversations to hear what matters most. She combines practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy with mindfulness skills to manage symptoms and build steadier routines. Christine also brings experience with dialectical behavior therapy and trauma-focused methods when intense emotions or past events are part of the picture.
She has worked with people facing co-occurring substance use and mental health issues and has spent recent years concentrating on anxiety and exposure work. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on clear, usable steps. People can expect direct feedback, homework suggestions when useful, and breathing or grounding practices in-session.
The goal is better coping and clearer choices as daily life becomes more manageable.
How approaches like CBT and mindfulness work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what she hears, and helps clarify what matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and more able to try changes.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and many mood concerns and often includes short exercises to practice between sessions. Mindfulness therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve tolerance for difficult feelings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean starting with client-centered conversations, adding CBT homework, or using mindfulness and DBT skills when emotions run high.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and skill coaching. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, skill reminders, or when someone needs frequent low-intensity support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep progress moving forward.
