Christina Burden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and major life changes. Christina helps people who are carrying guilt or shame related to family, faith, or relationships by listening carefully and offering practical steps forward.
She uses evidence-based work to help people recognize unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. She mentions Cognitive Behavioral and Narrative therapy as tools she draws on to address mood, social anxiety, and grief. Sessions include concrete skills practice for managing emotions and improving communication.
Christina often focuses on everyday problems that make life harder - workplace stress, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and the challenges of adoption or blended families. She also works with body image, codependency, commitment issues, and concerns tied to BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture. She helps people talk through control issues and the fallout from abandonment experiences.
In sessions she listens and points out patterns people may not notice. She helps clients try new reactions and build small habits that reduce overwhelm. Her approach stresses practical tools such as mood management and clearer communication rather than abstract theory.
People who choose her typically want straightforward feedback, skill-building, and help making choices when life feels stuck. To begin, clients follow the site's process to match and schedule their first meeting.
How evidence-based work looks online with a counselor
Christina names Cognitive Behavioral techniques and Narrative approaches as part of her work. Cognitive Behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to shift mood and anxiety. Narrative approaches help people rewrite painful stories about themselves so they carry less shame or guilt.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, listen to what has and hasn’t helped, and suggest methods that fit the client's needs and preferences. Together the client and therapist review progress and adjust methods as needed.
