Christina uses a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach. She blends techniques to match each person’s needs, often drawing on cognitive behavioral methods, psychodynamic ideas, narrative work, mindfulness, and motivational strategies. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer self-understanding, and building coping routines.

People may seek her help for relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, caregiver stress, career shifts, chronic health issues, or questions about identity and gender. Christina also supports those dealing with grief, compassion fatigue, and sleep or attention difficulties.

Her style emphasizes trust, empathy, and respect. She encourages gradual change and helps people set realistic goals. Those interested in starting are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a session.

How Christina’s approaches shape online sessions

Christina frequently uses cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness techniques. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small experiments to change behaviors. Mindfulness helps people notice and tolerate strong feelings and reduce reactivity through simple attention practices.

She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. That approach uses open questions and reflective listening to build motivation for steps clients want to take. Together these methods are practical and goal-oriented, which many people find useful when managing life transitions, grief, or stress.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Christina will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. From there she tailors sessions and checks in regularly to adjust techniques as needed.

Confirm the current session options before booking to learn which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules require a brief visit. It can also let people practice coping skills in the context of their everyday routines without needing to rearrange a whole day.
