About Christine

Christine Hamby is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people navigate strong emotions during major life changes. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and the practical strain of parenting. Christine also supports those coping with compassion fatigue and the emotional fallout of separation and divorce.

Her approach is straightforward and action-oriented. She uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take steps that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy informs work on relationship patterns and feelings about closeness and loss.

Christine emphasizes simple, practical steps you can use between sessions. She focuses on small changes that add up, like shifting a thought, trying a new conversation, or setting a boundary. Sessions typically involve talking through what’s most pressing and deciding on one or two next steps to try during the week.

With three years of clinical experience, Christine draws on real-world practice rather than jargon. She holds an LCSW credential, licensed in Arkansas and Oklahoma, and provides services from her Oklahoma base. Conversations are held in English.

If you’re facing a transition, parenting strain, or feelings of isolation, she offers a calm space to sort priorities and plan manageable changes. To begin, follow the site process to match and schedule a time that fits your needs.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when emotions feel overwhelming. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. This approach often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by offering tools to test new ways of acting. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses, which can be helpful for separation, caregiving stress, and problems with trust.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christine will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. She checks in about what is helpful and adjusts the plan as you go so the work stays relevant to daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins on challenging weeks. Some formats may be better for shorter updates while others suit deeper conversations, so discuss practical needs and scheduling when you match and book.
