Approaches that guide online work

Christina commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her sessions. Client-centered therapy means the conversation centers on the person's needs and goals, with the therapist following the client's lead and offering reflective listening. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors, which is useful for depression, anxiety, and stress-related problems.

She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without judgment. Mindfulness work can make it easier to manage strong feelings and improve day-to-day coping. Deciding which approaches to use is collaborative; Christina will help you try different methods and adjust based on what fits your goals and preferences.

If you are considering online work, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins on a break, and reduce travel time. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and what to expect so sessions can be arranged around daily responsibilities.
