About Christine

Christine Hamby is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Oklahoma with three years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, depression, compassion fatigue, and related concerns such as guilt and shame. Christine speaks English and uses practical therapies to help clients manage day-to-day strain.

Christine draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. She focuses on concrete steps - noticing difficult thoughts, testing unhelpful patterns, and choosing small actions that match personal values. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with space to examine how past relationships influence current feelings.

Many people come for help with loss, separation, caregiving stress, or feeling stuck by control and abandonment worries. She also supports those coping with mood and personality concerns, loneliness, or struggles around sexuality and non-monogamous relationships. Guilt and shame are named areas Christine addresses directly in sessions.

Her approach tends to break big problems into manageable tasks. Clients can expect discussion of practical coping skills, experiments to try between sessions, and work on shifting everyday behaviors that reinforce painful feelings. Christine encourages reflection on attachment patterns and how they affect choices now.

Located in Oklahoma, Christine brings three years of practice as an LCSW to each meeting. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and follow the platform steps to complete a matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her methods translate to online sessions

Christine uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT focuses on stepping toward what matters, even when feelings are uncomfortable, and can help with anxiety, guilt, and role strain.

She also incorporates Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape expectations and behavior now. That work often includes identifying patterns in close relationships and practicing different ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try concrete experiments that change routine responses to stress and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christine will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a client's goals and preferences and adapt exercises to suit daily life. The therapist-client team checks what helps and adjusts the plan over time.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, attachment work, and CBT exercises for remote meetings so clients can practice skills between sessions.
