Background and approach
Christina uses approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to reduce worry and improve daily routines. She also draws on solution-focused and motivational strategies to set short-term goals and build momentum. Trauma-focused methods are used when past events continue to affect mood and behavior.
She supports people facing family conflict, caregiver stress, panic and social anxiety, and ongoing mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and depression. Christina also addresses issues like abandonment, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and questions of life purpose. Her style is collaborative.
She helps people choose which techniques to try and adjusts plans as progress happens. The emphasis is on steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.
Practical approaches you can use online
Christina uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness as foundations in her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches ways to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Mindfulness therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce rumination and calm anxiety.She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to set clear, short-term goals and build momentum. Those approaches help when someone wants to make a specific change, stay motivated, and track progress over weeks rather than months. If past events continue to cause distress, trauma-focused methods are integrated to address those memories and reactions.
Christina treats the choice of approach as a collaboration. She listens to each person's goals and preferences, then suggests methods to try. Plans are adjusted based on what helps most, so the process feels practical and personalized.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when scheduling makes longer sessions difficult. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep steady progress.
