Online support
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to see what improves mood or anxiety. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve sleep and focus.She also integrates Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters and build motivation for change. That method uses open questions and reflective listening to help clients set realistic goals and stay engaged. Together these approaches can address worry, low mood, relationship strain, and coping with illness or caregiving challenges.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then tailor techniques to the client’s preferences. Sessions include checking progress and adjusting methods so therapy feels useful and doable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper conversations and practicing skills with visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit brief updates, journaling between sessions, or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
