How her approaches work in online therapy
Christina commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot patterns of thinking that feed anxiety and stress. In simple, structured steps she helps clients test new thoughts and behaviors to see what helps in everyday life.She also uses client-centered therapy which emphasizes listening and collaboration. This approach focuses on a person’s goals and values so sessions shape to what matters most to them. For people with a history of trauma she applies trauma-focused techniques to address painful memories in a paced, careful way.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina treats finding a good fit as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then adjust methods as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a camera is not wanted. Live chat and text-based messaging work for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around school, work, and family needs.
