About Christina

Christina Kulp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of experience practicing in Pennsylvania. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, depression, and life changes, and lists life purpose among her areas of focus. Christina also addresses issues like parenting, career questions, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Her training includes an MSW from Marywood University and undergraduate studies at Cedar Crest College in psychology and sociology. She has worked in geriatric, nonprofit, and healthcare settings and holds post-graduate certificates in gerontology and palliative/end-of-life care. She is pursuing a doctorate in social work through a combined program at Kutztown and Millersville Universities.

In session she mixes practical techniques with conversation. Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, narrative work, and psychodynamic ideas. She often helps people identify what feels out of balance, test small changes, and notice how thoughts affect behavior.

Christina describes her style as collaborative and strengths-focused. She pays attention to past experiences that shape current patterns while helping clients set manageable goals. For someone unsure what comes next, she aims to help clarify options and find steps that fit everyday life.

Her background includes work with aging populations, hospice and caregiver stress, chronic illness, and trauma-affected clients. She lists a wide range of concerns she addresses, from intimacy and communication problems to life purpose and career questions. Sessions are conducted in English and follow the scope of practice for an LCSW in Pennsylvania.

How Christina’s approaches translate to online work

Christina often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to difficult feelings. Motivational Interviewing is a short, goal-focused way to clarify values and increase readiness for change, often helpful with career decisions or getting unstuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation guides how sessions are structured and which tools are practiced between meetings.

The practical benefit of meeting remotely is making sessions easier to fit into busy schedules. Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the profile does not specify them. Online sessions can allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to maintain continuity during life transitions while still using CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, or motivational interviewing techniques during appointments.
