Over a decade of practice in Pennsylvania has shaped her practical approach to therapy. Christine uses methods that focus on the person’s goals and on what works in day-to-day life.

Her work also includes concerns like hoarding, money and financial stress, postpartum and pregnancy-related challenges, social anxiety, isolation, and issues common to veterans and armed forces families. Christine brings attention to both immediate coping and small, doable steps toward longer-term change.

How Christine's Approaches Shape Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, understanding your perspective, and building on your strengths to set the pace for change; it can help when stress, anxiety, or parenting concerns feel overwhelming. Motivational Interviewing uses gentle, goal-oriented conversations to clarify what you want and to boost motivation for change; it can be useful for life transitions or when making difficult decisions. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps and identifies what already works so you can move toward concrete goals more quickly.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work itself. Christine will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, circumstances, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape session focus, pace, and the specific techniques used.
