About Christina
Her approach mixes practical talk and skills-based work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Sessions are collaborative and focused on what the person wants to change. Christina helps people notice thoughts and habits that get in the way, practice new ways of responding, and try out small experiments between sessions. She also uses client-centered techniques to keep the conversation focused on the person’s own goals and priorities.
For relationship concerns she incorporates elements of the Gottman Method to address communication problems and intimacy difficulties. When obsessive or compulsive symptoms are present she leans on CBT strategies to reduce rituals and examine beliefs that fuel obsessions.
Christina’s style is straightforward and action-oriented. She helps people make step-by-step adjustments that fit everyday life. People who are unsure what comes next often begin by clarifying their values, testing small changes, and tracking what helps.

Approaches used and how online sessions work
Christina commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to the person’s goals and keeping the work grounded in their priorities. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, compulsions, and low mood.Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christina works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s needs and preferences. Together they check what is helping and adjust the plan as work progresses, mixing skill practice, discussion, and brief experiments as needed.
