Background and approach
Christina uses approaches that emphasize the person in the room and what matters most to them. Her work grew from helping people manage addiction and mental health concerns, and it now covers a wide range of challenges.

Chronic pain, body image struggles, codependency, and family of origin issues are also areas she addresses. Christina draws on client-centered methods that prioritize each person's goals and strengths. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and motivational interviewing to encourage change.
Mindfulness and existential ideas inform how she helps people find meaning and present-moment coping. She practices in Minnesota and brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions. Christina emphasizes collaboration: clients set goals, and she helps map the steps toward them.
For people looking to make practical changes while being heard, she offers a steady, experienced presence.
How Christina’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s priorities front and center. It involves listening closely and shaping sessions around what matters to you, which helps when you want practical changes or clearer goals.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on linking thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing ADHD-related routines.
Motivational interviewing helps when making changes feels hard or uncertain. It uses guided conversations to strengthen motivation and map small steps toward a goal rather than pushing a fixed plan.
Choosing an approach is a team effort. Christina will talk with you about your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust as you learn what helps best. The plan can change as you progress and as new priorities emerge.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you work face to face without traveling. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, homework coordination, and staying connected between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
