Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support

Christina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT is practical and often useful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness - tools that can help with intense emotions, relationship challenges, and coping during crises. Mindfulness techniques are incorporated when helpful to foster present-moment awareness and reduce rumination.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Christina works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then tailors methods to find the best fit. The process often combines elements from different therapies so clients gain skills that match their circumstances.

Online therapy with Christina is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from varied locations and to continue therapy during life transitions or when in-person sessions are not practical.
