About Christina
Her approach puts the person first. Christina uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each client. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when clients need tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness practices are offered to help slow down racing thoughts and increase present-moment awareness. She also incorporates existential ideas when clients want to examine meaning, values, and life direction.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Christina aims to build a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where people can name their struggles and try new ways of coping. She works with common issues such as ADHD, bipolar symptoms, substance concerns, and career stress, and addresses related areas like attachment, body image, and communication problems.
Christina invites people to take the first step toward change and says finding the right therapist is a process. Prospective clients are encouraged to reach out and start the matching process so they can schedule sessions that fit their needs and goals.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and decide goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches concrete strategies to change patterns that cause distress. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals and try methods that match their needs. Together they will adjust methods over time as progress and preferences become clearer.
This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use mindfulness and behavioral homework in real life between meetings. Licensed professionals work with each person to find a rhythm that fits daily life and promotes steady progress.
