About Christine
Dr. Christine Wilcox is a licensed clinical social worker with 27 years of practice. She focuses on helping adults who are dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma, and related life challenges.
She practices in Colorado and provides a steady, practical approach to therapy. She uses short, clear techniques that people can try between sessions. Common tools include ways to manage worry, build routines for sleep and eating, and set clearer personal boundaries.
Background and approach
She also guides people facing relationship strains, work pressure, or major life changes. Her background includes social work and nursing education plus long experience across hospital, hospice, long-term care, and community programs. Christine holds a Master of Social Work from The Ohio State University and has maintained licensure as an LCSW and LISW in multiple states.
This mix of settings informs how she supports people in everyday life. In sessions she combines practical skills with attention to how attachments and past losses affect present choices. Methods she draws on include cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance-based practices, and therapy that centers the person’s own goals.
She encourages steady self-care steps like mindful breathing and consistent activity. Her work aims to be straightforward and action-oriented. People leave sessions with specific things to try at home.
The focus is on small, sustainable changes that reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Christine commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then take actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thought patterns and habits to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match techniques to a person's goals, symptoms, and everyday life. Together they will try methods, adjust what does not fit, and build a plan that feels workable for each person.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever they are, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make scheduling easier and allow therapy to fit around work, caregiving, and daily routines.
