How Christina's Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy puts the person's goals and perspective first. In practice this means the therapist listens carefully, asks questions to clarify what matters, and helps the client set the pace and priorities for work together. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect; it offers concrete tools to test and shift unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep problems going. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) brings skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships when feelings feel overwhelming.Choosing the best approach is a team effort. Christina will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, treating the approach as flexible rather than fixed.
Online therapy offers a range of practical ways to connect. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, written reflections, and ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family, or daily routines while keeping the work collaborative and goal focused.
