How Christine’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflection. The therapist helps clients talk through their concerns and decides together what to try next. This approach supports issues like self-esteem, isolation, and relationship communication.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Clients learn to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or manage panic symptoms.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name core emotions that drive relationship patterns and intimacy concerns. It is useful for improving emotional connection and understanding attachment-related difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will review what helps and adjust the plan over time so sessions stay practical and relevant.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by saving commuting time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or removing the need to be on camera when that is preferred. Many licensed professionals use online work to maintain continuity of care while adapting session length and focus to everyday schedules.
