Christine Perez , LCPC, LPC

Christine Perez is a licensed counselor with more than 24 years of experience. She uses practical, down-to-earth methods to help people facing anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship concerns. Christine lists Women's issues among her focus areas and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful from the first meeting.

She often begins by listening closely and helping people name what feels most urgent. That clarity guides a plan that can include short-term solutions and longer work on self-esteem or life purpose. Sessions focus on steps people can try between meetings, not just talk about problems.

Christine draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness to teach simple ways to reduce worry. She also uses client-centered and solution-focused strategies that keep the person’s goals in view. Motivational interviewing supports people making life changes when needed.

Her background includes work with concerns such as postpartum depression, seasonal affective disorder, self-harm, social anxiety, and eating or food-related issues. She also addresses control issues, forgiveness, infidelity, and the strain of family problems in individual sessions.

Based in Kansas, Christine works in English and offers several online formats. She explains credentials as LCPC and LPC and keeps the approach collaborative and goal-oriented to help people move forward.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Christine blends cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy into straightforward, practical work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test more balanced ways of thinking, which can ease anxiety and depression. Mindfulness therapy teaches brief attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus in daily life.

She approaches therapy collaboratively, so finding the best fit is part of the first few sessions. The therapist and client review goals, try an approach for a few meetings, and adjust based on what feels most helpful and doable. This helps tailor the work to the person’s needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone is helpful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins or shorter sessions, and text messaging supports ongoing, between-session contact. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare, and busy days.
