Background and approach
Christina also addresses communication and control issues, commitment worries, and family of origin problems. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and try different behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness practices are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities.
Christina brings four years of clinical experience and frames therapy as a collaborative process. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations and plans to individual needs.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Christina commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood, and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together decide which methods to try. She adapts strategies over time based on what is working and what isn’t, keeping the process collaborative and straightforward.
Online therapy offers flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or when writing feels easier than talking. These formats make it simpler to schedule care around daily life while still using the same therapeutic tools described above.
