How Christina’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding your goals, and making sessions feel collaborative. The therapist follows your lead and helps you make decisions that fit your life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into clear parts - thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal interactions; it is useful for mood swings, intense emotions, and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will discuss options and try techniques that match the client's needs and goals. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that feels useful and realistic for everyday life.
