How client-centered and CBT approaches fit into online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and following the person's priorities. The therapist creates space for the client to name goals and steer the conversation, which can help when addressing sleep problems, grief, or relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and stress because it gives clear tools people can practice between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Christina collaborates with each person to decide whether client-centered conversation, CBT strategies, or a mix will best match their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques based on what the client finds helpful and practical.

Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about how sessions can be scheduled and shaped to support sleep routines, coping strategies, and daily habits.
