About Christina

Christina Brown is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington with four years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, depression, and the challenges of big life changes.

She helps people talk through what feels overwhelming and figure out practical next steps. Christina uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. Sessions focus on concrete skills for managing mood, thoughts, and behavior.

Christina also addresses issues that often come up alongside those concerns. These include attachment and abandonment questions, blended family stress, caregiver strain, body image, codependency, communication difficulties, and commitment worries. She includes family of origin and other relational patterns when they affect current problems.

Her way of working is conversational and goal-focused. Clients can expect to set short-term aims, try practical strategies between meetings, and review what helps. Christina adapts conversations and the plan as things change.

People reach out when a job shift, loss, or other change leaves them unsure what to do next. Christina supports those who want to build coping skills, regain steadiness, and explore what matters to them moving forward.

How Christina’s approaches work in remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and take actions that align with their values. It is often used when uncertainty or avoidance keeps someone from trying new directions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to shift patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggest which techniques to try first. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps and what doesn't.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for quick check-ins during a lunch break or between obligations. They also let people practice skills in their everyday setting and bring real-life situations into conversation without promising any specific format. Licensed professionals commonly use remote meetings to maintain continuity of care and make regular sessions more practical.
