How Christine’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and strengths. The therapist listens closely and helps people name what matters most and build on existing strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and quick wins to move toward what the client wants.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they decide whether to emphasize listening and reflection, skills training, or short-term solution building, and they adjust the plan as needed.

If you are considering online options, confirm the specific session formats available before booking since the biography does not list them. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into their schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or make it simpler to continue therapy during life changes. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote care while helping clients put practical steps into everyday routines.
