About Christina

Christina Burnett is a licensed clinical social worker who offers straightforward, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed. She focuses on making therapy approachable and useful for everyday struggles. Her style is warm and collaborative, aiming to help clients meet real goals and feel steadier day to day.

Christina draws on client-centered care and cognitive approaches to help people change unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also uses motivational interviewing to boost readiness for change and Jungian ideas to explore deeper patterns when useful.

Background and approach

Sessions are aimed at practical steps, not jargon. She has twelve years of hands-on experience in mental health work in Pennsylvania. Early in her career she worked in community mental health and substance use treatment, supporting adults involved with criminal and family court systems.

That background shaped how she helps with legal, work, and life transition stresses. Common concerns she addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, and self-esteem challenges. She also helps with relationship issues, career strain, and the unique pressures young adults face.

Christina pays attention to attachment, codependency, communication, and control issues when those patterns show up. Sessions combine listening with clear tools - thought work, behavior changes, motivational strategies, and exploration of personal patterns. The goal is to help clients manage symptoms, make choices that fit their values, and handle setbacks without losing hope.

Christina aims for a collaborative partnership focused on steady, practical progress.

Online support

How Christina’s approaches fit online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what a person most needs. Online sessions let the therapist follow the client’s lead, build trust, and shape goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going and teaches clear skills to change them, which works well over video or phone because homework and brief skill practice can be reviewed together. Motivational Interviewing helps people move toward change by exploring their own reasons and strengths, and it fits short check-ins or text-based conversations when someone needs prompt encouragement.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, history, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and convenience. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers no video. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking mood, or getting support between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
