Christina Balboni, LCSW

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical steps and emotional processing. One common approach helps people manage anxiety and stress by learning breathing and coping strategies, pacing activities, and breaking problems into smaller tasks. This method is useful for daily worry, panic, and stress that gets in the way of functioning.

Another approach centers on grief and adjustment work. That involves naming feelings, making space for memories, and developing routines that help with day-to-day functioning after a loss or major life change. This can be helpful for end-of-life concerns, bereavement, or transitions linked to aging and chronic illness.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina will listen to your needs and goals, then suggest techniques and a plan to try. She adjusts methods as you go so the work fits your pace and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to care. Video calls let you have face-to-face conversation when a longer session is needed. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, notes between sessions, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
