About Christine

Background and approach
She listens first, then helps clients try small changes that can bring relief. Sessions often include teaching simple skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. Christine uses clear, usable tools rather than complex jargon.
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and take actions that match their values. She also uses Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused approaches to create space for honest feelings and better connection with others. These methods are used together in ways that fit each person’s situation.
Christine has worked across many concerns including mood challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and career or life transitions. She also addresses relationship strain, intimacy issues, and compassion fatigue for caregivers. Her background helps when concerns overlap or feel complicated.
Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair someone with Christine and schedule an appointment that fits their life.

How Christine’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for stress, anxiety, anger, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and then experimenting with new ways of thinking and acting to reduce distress and improve functioning.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Christine will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, client-centered listening, or a mix of methods will best match the situation and needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a hands-free option is needed. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who prefer typing. These options help fit therapy into busy days and make follow-up between sessions easier.
