About Christine

Christine Rivlin is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and eating concerns. She works with clients who keep high performance on the outside but feel exhausted, self-critical, or burned out inside. Her approach aims to validate what you’re feeling while helping you find clearer direction and steadier emotions.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to look for patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences shape current reactions and on building practical skills to respond differently. Christine blends careful listening with concrete strategies so sessions feel both honest and useful.

Clients often bring issues such as body image worries, relationship strain around divorce or separation, recovery from domestic violence or sexual assault, substance use concerns, or lingering effects of military service. She also supports people struggling with mood disorders, personality concerns, workplace stress, and guilt or shame.

Christine has seven years of clinical experience and holds LPC and LPCC credentials, with licensure in Texas noted in her profile. She emphasizes creating a respectful space where clients can test new ways of coping and practice change.

If you’re balancing a demanding life and want to stop merely surviving, she aims to help you move toward greater stability and purpose. To begin, use the site’s matching tools to see if her style fits your needs.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Christine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and teaching skills people can use day to day. One common approach helps people process difficult memories and reduce the intensity of distressing reactions by developing clearer ways to tell their story and change habitual responses. Another approach centers on skill building for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavioral strategies to manage intense moments and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaboration includes trying methods, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

The therapist's profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow more flexible scheduling around work or family obligations. It can also let someone choose shorter check-ins when needed or sessions without video if that suits their needs better.
