Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Christina often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a focused approach that explores how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood challenges. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for managing intense emotions and relationship difficulties. Additionally, Mindfulness Therapy is part of her toolkit, helping clients build present-moment awareness and reduce stress through gentle attention practices.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so therapy fits the client's needs and pace.

Offering sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging increases flexibility and access to care. These options let clients connect from different locations, fit appointments into busy schedules, and continue work between sessions, while maintaining regular contact with licensed professionals and therapists to support progress.
