She invites people who are ready for change to take steps toward a more fulfilling life. Christine prefers working collaboratively and walks alongside clients as they try new ways of coping and relating.
How Christine Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Client-centered therapy centers the client's experience and priorities, giving people space to tell their story while the therapist listens and reflects. This approach helps when someone needs validation, clearer goals, and a plan based on their values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and problem-focused, useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. DBT techniques can be helpful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust strategies as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a brief touchpoint helps. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT exercises to an online setting so clients can practice skills between sessions and track small changes over time.
