Background and approach
Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with attention to how problems look in daily life. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses client-centered methods to follow each person’s priorities and motivational interviewing to spark change when motivation feels stuck.
Christine has eight years of clinical experience working with adults on issues like coping with life changes, workplace stress, guilt and shame, and relationship or communication problems. She also supports people dealing with post-traumatic stress, mood disorders, divorce and separation, and women’s issues.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Houston and professional practice under the Texas LCSW credential. People who choose her for therapy can expect practical tools, steady support, and clear next steps between sessions.
Approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities so sessions reflect what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through feelings and decide next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work and happens together. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that match the client's needs and preferences. If something in therapy isn’t helping, adjustments are made so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers several ways to connect: video calls for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or a busy schedule while still using proven techniques like CBT and client-centered care.
