Christine Perez is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Kansas with 24 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and life changes, and she lists life purpose as a focus.

Christine uses practical, talk-based methods to help people sort through what feels stuck. Sessions often include looking at patterns that keep problems repeating and trying small changes to see what helps. She brings a faith-informed viewpoint when relevant to a client's story, while focusing on concrete steps to manage symptoms and decisions.

Her work pays attention to social anxiety, workplace stress, and midlife shifts. She also addresses issues such as eating and food-related concerns, postpartum depression, Seasonal Affective Disorder, and self-harm with evidence-based approaches. First responder issues, family problems, forgiveness, infidelity, jealousy, and feelings of emptiness are part of her clinical focus as well.

Christine describes therapy as collaborative talk where goals are set and reviewed. Techniques draw from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to match a client's needs. Sessions are practical and oriented toward making daily life feel more manageable.

People who choose her work with someone who has long clinical experience and a straightforward style. She asks about a person's values and circumstances to shape sessions. Prospective clients are invited to consider life purpose and practical coping strategies as part of the work ahead.

How her approaches translate to remote sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client so they feel heard and can clarify goals. This approach helps when someone is unsure what matters next or needs a nonjudgmental place to talk through options.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, testing small behavioral changes, and building practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. It can be useful for social anxiety, stress management, and managing mood fluctuations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will outline options and collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That planning usually happens during the first few meetings and is adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Confirm specific session formats before booking because the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity during life changes and scheduling around work or caregiving demands.
