About Christina
She centers sessions on the person in front of her, believing each client knows their story best. Christina looks for practical strengths to build on and helps clients turn those strengths into steady habits. Conversations are straightforward and geared toward real-life changes rather than abstract theory.
Christina uses a mix of approaches to fit what each person needs. She draws on client-centered methods to create a listening space, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and dialectical behavior skills for emotional regulation. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolkit when they match a client’s goals.
Her work covers a wide range of concerns including relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, mood disorders, ADHD, and challenges related to career and identity. She also supports people dealing with first responder stress, immigration-related pressures, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.
Sessions focus on clear goals, practical coping skills, and small, achievable steps. Christina supports clients through transitions like divorce or recovery from substance use while encouraging realistic progress at each stage.

How her approaches shape online work
Christina blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to match each person's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's pace so goals come from the person's priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the link between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches practical tools for changing unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy provides skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Christina will talk through options and try methods that fit the client’s goals, preferences, and daily life. She adjusts techniques as progress is made so the plan stays practical and realistic.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so people can use a break between activities. Many clients find that working with a licensed professional remotely makes it easier to keep consistent appointments and practice skills between meetings.
