About Christine
Christine Manturuk is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She focuses on everyday struggles like grief, relationship strain, work pressure, and feeling disconnected. Christine offers calm, direct support for people seeking clearer thinking and steadier coping.
She brings about ten years of clinical experience and uses a mix of approaches to fit each person. Sessions emphasize listening, gentle challenge, and practical steps clients can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Her work often centers on meaning, self-understanding, and rebuilding routines after loss or change. Christine trained in counseling and art therapy and completed a master’s degree at Drexel College of Nursing and Health Professions in 2015. Since then she has continued professional learning, including a three-year Gestalt training finished in 2021.
In practice she pulls from client-centered, psychodynamic, and mindfulness approaches alongside motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas. That means she balances open listening with focused goals and simple skills you can practice outside sessions.
People come to her for help with mood concerns such as depression, bipolar disorder, panic and social anxiety, trauma and post-traumatic stress, caregiver stress, chronic illness challenges, and workplace or career stress. Christine aims to create steady, realistic plans that match each person’s life and priorities.
How Christine’s Approaches Fit Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel understood and can find their own solutions; it is helpful for anxiety, low mood, and life changes. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support steady coping with stress. Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns from past experiences and helps people notice how those patterns show up now, which can aid with relationships and lingering mood difficulties.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try approaches that fit your needs. That process is collaborative and can change as progress happens.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is good for in-depth conversation and emotional work. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people share thoughts between sessions or check in when a quick step-by-step plan helps. These options offer flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving demands, or when it’s simpler to connect from wherever you are.
