How her approaches fit into online therapy
Christina often uses client-centered work to listen closely and prioritize what the person says matters most. This approach focuses on understanding your perspective and building a plan that feels relevant to your life.She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT tends to be practical and goal oriented, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina collaborates with each person to try methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they review what works and adjust the work over time rather than sticking to a single method.
Confirm current session options before booking, as session formats are determined by the therapist's practice. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It also makes it possible to continue work through moves or schedule changes. Talk with the therapist during the initial match to clarify how sessions will be scheduled and structured.
