How her approaches translate to online therapy

Christina uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in straightforward ways online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that align with what matters to them; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. This is a collaborative decision made together rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy schedules, makes regular check-ins easier, and lets sessions happen without extra travel time. Online sessions can allow shorter check-ins when needed or full-length sessions that focus on specific skills and steps to practice between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT tools to an online setting to keep work practical and relevant to daily life.
