Christine Taylor , LPC

Christine Taylor is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 16 years of hands-on experience supporting adults through a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. She has worked with people from diverse backgrounds addressing concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, and histories of emotional abuse, and she adapts her approach to match each person she sees.

Drawing on client-centered principles alongside cognitive and psychodynamic ideas, Christine shapes sessions to focus on the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all model. She aims to create a space of encouragement and respectful challenge where clients can explore patterns, build coping skills, and pursue meaningful change at their own pace. Her work frequently involves addressing self-esteem, grief, parenting and family issues, addiction, and the particular stresses that come with caregiving, career transitions, or identity-related concerns.

Sessions are 45 minutes long and scheduled weekly on a first-come, first-served basis to fit clients into times that work with their calendars. Because her practice operates online, reliable electrical power and an internet connection are required - if a power outage or connectivity issue occurs on either side, the session will need to be rescheduled. Clients are asked to notify her a day in advance when possible if they cannot attend a planned session. Christine does not provide crisis counseling on this platform - in the event of an emergency she directs individuals to call 911, local emergency services, or go to the nearest hospital emergency department.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christine Taylor often integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness techniques into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration - the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports self-discovery, which can be especially useful for improving self-esteem and navigating relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to distress and building practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding skills that can reduce stress reactivity and support emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Christine works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adjusts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for the client’s needs.

Online sessions using video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity when schedules or locations change. These formats increase flexibility and accessibility, allowing licensed professionals like Christine to offer consistent therapeutic support across different communication styles and practical constraints.
