About Christina
She uses a client-centered approach that begins with listening to what matters most to each person. Christina also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help change unhelpful thinking and on emotionally focused work to address connection and attachment concerns. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are part of her toolbox for building awareness and strengthening motivation to change.
Christina has four years of clinical experience and has worked with people facing grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, intimacy issues, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and life transitions. Her background includes ongoing work in the community and a focus on practical skills for day-to-day coping.
Sessions aim to identify small, achievable steps clients can take between meetings. Christina prefers a straightforward style with clear goals and homework when it helps progress. She also supports people who want coaching-style guidance alongside traditional therapy methods.
Clients should expect a collaborative process that prioritizes their goals. Christina asks about strengths, patterns that cause problems, and realistic changes a person can try. Her approach emphasizes gradual progress and skills people can use after therapy ends.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding what matters to the person first. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to set goals and pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and helps people try practical changes to feel better.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, past experiences, and preferences, then recommend approaches to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as needed based on how things progress.
Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people continue care if relocating or traveling internationally, though specific arrangements should be reviewed during intake.
