About Christianna
Christianna Sullivan is a licensed clinician practicing in Illinois. She holds the LCSW and LCPC credentials and brings seven years of professional experience to her work. Christianna focuses on practical help for everyday struggles and aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable.
She helps people manage stress and anxiety with simple, concrete strategies. She also addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, career pressure, and issues around self-esteem. Trauma, grief, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges are included among her focus areas.
How Christianna works
Her style is collaborative and client-centered. Sessions are guided by whatever the person brings in that day, and goals are set together. She uses mindfulness techniques to help people calm their thoughts and stay present during hard moments.
Christianna also uses solution-focused methods to identify small, achievable steps toward change. That approach is useful for people who want targeted support for a particular problem or a quicker path to relief. She adapts the pace and tools to each person's needs.
She values respect, sensitivity, and compassion in the room. Conversations and plans are tailored to the individual rather than following a single formula. Christianna encourages practical progress while honoring the full range of a person's experience.

Online support options
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the clinician. The therapist listens with respect and follows the person's lead, helping them clarify goals and make choices that fit their life. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through problems and find their own direction.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept away. These tools can reduce reactivity to stress and help with anxiety, grief, and emotional overwhelm by building steady habits of attention.
Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps that move a person toward their goals. Sessions often identify what already works and increase those behaviors, which is helpful for people who want focused, practical progress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That can mean combining mindfulness with solution-focused steps or emphasizing client-centered conversation until clarity emerges.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short check-ins, journaling between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
