About Christine

Christine Snead is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years in the mental health field. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety and those facing relationship or mood challenges. Christine speaks English and works with clients in Alabama and internationally.

She trained at Auburn University and holds a master’s degree. Over the years she has worked with people managing depression, panic, parenting struggles, career pressures, and personality-related difficulties. Her background includes supporting clients coping with grief, addiction, trauma, and identity-related concerns.

Christine favors practical approaches that help people make changes day to day. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thinking and Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, nonjudgmental space. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when working through close relationship issues.

Sessions are meant to feel collaborative: she listens, offers techniques, and helps clients set small, reachable goals. Christine also integrates solution-focused and motivational strategies to move people toward clearer next steps. Her style aims to be straightforward and supportive.

She encourages anyone who wants to try therapy to take the first step. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How Christine's Methods Translate to Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client directs the pace and topics. This approach helps people feel heard and understood while they work through stress, anxiety, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In sessions Christine helps clients spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets emotional responses within close relationships. When relationship issues or intimacy concerns are present, she uses EFT ideas to help people recognize feelings and try new ways of connecting.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christine discusses goals and preferences with each client and together they decide which methods to try. The plan can change as needs evolve, and she aims for a collaborative process that fits individual goals.

Confirm session formats before booking so you know how therapy will be delivered. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt the approaches above to work well in non-office settings, helping clients practice new skills in their everyday life.
