Her approach is consistently non-judgemental and grounded in respect, sensitivity, compassion and integrity, with an emphasis on creating an interactive therapeutic relationship that meets each person where they are.

She practices an integrative model, combining cognitive-behavioural techniques with humanistic, psychodynamic, somatic and solution-focused elements to tailor treatment to individual needs.

Christina offers supportive, empowering work for those ready to take steps toward change and greater well-being.

Integrative approaches for online support

Christina uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgemental relationship so individuals can explore feelings and build self-understanding; this approach is often helpful for grief, relationship challenges and self-esteem concerns. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties and coping with life changes. Attachment-based work complements these methods by examining patterns in close relationships and early bonds, offering ways to address abandonment, attachment issues and intimacy-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Christina will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists generally adapt strategies over time so treatment remains focused and relevant.

Online therapy with Christina can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and the ability to engage from different locations. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives and access support in a way that matches personal comfort and practical needs.
