About Christina

Christina Davila is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping adults and adolescents manage stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and self-esteem concerns. Christina emphasizes the client’s own goals and strengths and offers steady support as people work toward clearer routines and better rest.

She values a plainspoken approach that centers the person’s story. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with practical steps clients can try between meetings. Christina often uses strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to address unhelpful thinking and build healthier habits around sleep, mood, and daily routines.

Motivational interviewing is part of her style when people need help finding energy to change. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are also used to manage intense emotions and improve coping. The focus is on small, realistic changes that fit each person’s life and priorities.

Christina has experience supporting people facing grief, trauma, parenting stresses, career questions, and identity-related concerns such as LGBT issues. She also works with those navigating mood disorders, ADHD, substance use, and the aftermath of disasters or major life changes.

People who seek her help can expect a collaborative relationship that respects their choices. She encourages clients to build routines that support sleep and daily functioning while addressing the thoughts and feelings that interfere with rest.

How her approaches shape online care

Client-centered therapy starts by treating the person as the expert on their life. The therapist listens first, then helps set goals that match each person’s values and daily needs. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing routines that interfere with sleep and mood, offering concrete exercises to practice between sessions.

These approaches are used together rather than as a single fixed method. The therapist will work with clients to test what helps most and adjust the plan. That means choosing skills and homework that fit the client’s schedule, goals, and comfort level through a collaborative process.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also help people try behavioral changes at home and bring real-life examples to sessions for immediate discussion.
