How Christine’s Approaches Work Online

Christine integrates client-centered methods and mindfulness in straightforward ways. Client-centered work means the person’s goals set the direction of sessions, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting what feels important. This helps when someone needs clearer priorities or more steady support day to day.

Mindfulness therapy includes simple exercises to notice thoughts and body sensations without judgment. Those practices can help reduce anxiety and improve focus during stressful moments. Christine also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma processing when appropriate; EMDR involves structured techniques to address distressing memories and related reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christine will discuss options and adapt methods based on a person’s goals, history, and preferences so the plan feels manageable and relevant. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are expected as needs change.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will fit your schedule and what approach you want to try first.
