Background and approach
Her approach centers on collaboration and clear goals. In sessions she treats the person, not just symptoms. She listens for what matters most and helps build small, doable steps toward change.
Conversations often include strategies to manage worry, improve communication, and reduce isolation. Christina encourages people to use their existing strengths while trying new ways to cope. She offers support that balances practical skill-building with emotional understanding.
The goal is steady progress that you can notice in everyday life. Her practice is suited to people who want straightforward help with stress, anxiety, or relationship and focus concerns. Christina is available for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
She works in English and practices under an Illinois LCPC credential.
Evidence-informed approaches and online care
Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on clear skills and gradual change. One common approach she uses teaches practical strategies to manage worry and racing thoughts, helping people reduce anxiety and regain daily functioning. Another approach emphasizes improving attention and organization, which can help with focus, memory, and day-to-day task management.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will listen to your concerns and goals, then recommend methods that fit your needs and preferences. She collaborates with you to try techniques, adjust them, and pick what feels most helpful over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you have a face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or have shorter, timely exchanges when a quick strategy or supportive note helps.
