Christine Colucci , LMHC

Christine Colucci is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 19 years of experience. She focuses on women's issues among a wide range of life challenges. Christine uses a warm, interactive style and aims to help people feel more confident and cope better with daily stressors.

She has a master's degree from Sage Graduate School and has worked in several mental health settings, including a nursing home social work department. That background gives her experience with aging and geriatric concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and caregiver stress.

Christine prefers a client-centered approach. She works side by side with people, listening first and helping them set the pace. She encourages open, honest conversation while offering guidance on next steps.

Her work draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness practices to help manage anxiety, depression, trauma reactions, and relationship struggles. Sessions often include practical tools for coping, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and practicing awareness skills.

People contact her for help with parenting strain, blended family issues, intimacy and sexual assault recovery, grief and loss, fertility and cancer-related stress, and career or self-esteem concerns. She also addresses compassion fatigue and isolation brought on by caregiving or illness.

Christine aims to help people find purpose and small, steady changes that add up. She moves at the client's pace while offering clear feedback and support to make progress toward personal goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist creates a respectful, compassionate space and helps people decide goals and pace for change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. It teaches practical strategies to reframe unhelpful thoughts and build new coping skills for anxiety, depression, and relationship stress.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. It can help with stress, trauma reactions, and chronic worry.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to each person's needs and preferences.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can fit a shorter break, and messaging or chat can be useful for quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to schedule appointments around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while still getting consistent support.
