About Christine

Christine Jacobsen is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, person-centered care that helps people manage stress, sleep problems, anxiety, and changes in life. Her approach is straightforward and collaborative, aimed at steady improvements rather than quick fixes.

She uses client-centered therapy to hear what matters most to each person and to shape sessions around their goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thoughts and build new routines that support better sleep, mood, and daily functioning. Sessions typically include clear strategies and small homework tasks that fit into busy lives.

Christine has worked across settings that include outpatient and inpatient care, and she has experience with mood disorders, trauma, addiction, and grief. She also supports people facing relationship strain, parenting stress, and workplace or career challenges. Sleeping and eating concerns are part of her clinical focus when they affect daily wellbeing.

Clients can expect a practical plan with short and long-term goals tailored to their situation. Christine pays attention to how symptoms interact, such as anxiety with sleep disruption or grief with concentration problems. Her style is warm and focused on what helps in everyday life.

To begin, she asks people to select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to her availability. Sessions use a subscription model that may be canceled at any time.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's own goals and experience. It involves listening closely, reflecting back what is important, and shaping sessions around each person's priorities. This approach can help when sleep or stress problems feel overwhelming because sessions start from what matters most to the client.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, emphasizes practical tools and behavior changes. It helps identify patterns of thinking that worsen anxiety or poor sleep and teaches step-by-step techniques to build better routines and coping skills. CBT often uses short homework tasks to practice new habits between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and daily routines and then decide together which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time, which helps people fit care into work or family days. It also allows for shorter check-ins when a quick strategy or sleep review is needed, and it can support steady follow-up as routines change.
