How Christina Uses Practical Approaches Online

Christina often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method when appropriate. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and uses simple experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting; it can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and coping skills. The Gottman Method focuses on communication and interaction patterns in relationships and offers specific skills to reduce conflict and rebuild connection for partners working through trust or intimacy issues.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina will discuss goals, preferences, and life circumstances to choose methods that fit. She adapts tools from different approaches as progress is made and checks in regularly to adjust the plan based on what is helping most.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work through emotional topics face to face, phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed, live chat is useful for brief problem-solving between appointments, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection or short updates. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping treatment consistent.
