How Christina’s approaches work for online therapy

Christina often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and focuses on small, practical changes to reduce anxiety or improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce stress and help with sleep, concentration, and emotional regulation.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing when people want to make a change but feel uncertain. That approach uses supportive conversation to clarify goals and build motivation in a gentle way. Together, these methods help with common problems like anxiety, depression, caregiving burnout, and relationship concerns. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. She works collaboratively to try methods that fit the person’s life and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, avoid travel time, or use a shorter check-in when needed. It also allows continuity of care when medical or caregiving demands make in-person visits hard. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices to work well in virtual sessions.
