Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Dr. Christine Wilcox

Dr. Wilcox uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and develop practical strategies for reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on changing patterns of thought and behavior to improve daily functioning.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), which teaches skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness - tools that are especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship struggles, and coping with crisis. Attachment-informed methods are used to explore relational patterns and improve communication and intimacy, particularly for clients working through abandonment, attachment issues, or family and blended-family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Wilcox works with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and adapts techniques over time so therapy feels relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility and greater access to care through video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to fit therapy into busy lives, stay connected during transitions, and continue consistent work on coping skills and relationship issues with licensed professionals who guide treatment remotely.
