Evidence-Based Techniques and Virtual Care

Christine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill building and processing difficult experiences. One approach centers on skill-based interventions that teach emotion regulation, stress management, and coping strategies to address anxiety, anger, and everyday stressors. These methods help clients develop tools they can use between sessions to manage symptoms and improve functioning.

Another focus is trauma-informed work that helps people safely explore and make sense of past hurts and abuse. This approach emphasizes pacing, validation, and strategies to reduce distress while working toward healing from traumatic experiences and related challenges such as addiction or relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Christine collaborates with each client to determine what techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time to ensure the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from home or elsewhere, while preserving the collaborative nature of therapy.
