She offers calm, practical support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and sleep difficulties. Her approach is grounded in respect for each persons values and life story.
Christina uses several therapy styles to match what each person needs. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current bonds.

Cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior skills are used when helpful for managing thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

How Christinas approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current connections. Online sessions can use this approach to help people notice patterns in closeness, trust, and conflict and practice new ways of relating. Client-centered therapy centers on the persons experience with active listening and empathy, which fits well into hour-long conversations that focus on the clients goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online sessions can include short homework, worksheets, and behavior experiments between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and values. She checks in about what works, adapts tools, and focuses on small, usable changes together with the client.
Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current options before booking.
