About Christina
Christina Kayrouz is a licensed clinical social worker with 10 years of experience based in Kentucky. She focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem struggles. Christina aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people feel heard and understood.
Her approach begins with listening to what matters most to each person. She works together with clients to build a plan that fits their life and goals.
How Christina works
Sessions focus on real-world skills and clearer thinking so daily tasks feel more manageable. Christina uses a mix of methods that include acceptance and commitment ideas, client-centered conversation, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, and emotionally-focused work. She adapts these to the person in front of her rather than following a script.
This allows for straightforward coping tools, emotional awareness, and stronger relationships with oneself and others. People come for help with things like grief, addiction, body image, parenting strain, anger, and career stress. She also supports those dealing with trauma, gender identity questions, hoarding, and impulse concerns.
Christina pays attention to the whole picture, including how daily routines, sleep, and work affect mood. The work proceeds at a pace set by the client. Christina emphasizes collaboration and small, achievable steps.
Her goal is to help people find clearer direction and more confidence in handling life changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling unmoored. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reorganizing emotional responses to improve how people relate to themselves and others.Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. From there they pick methods to try, adjust them over time, and check in about progress so the plan stays useful and practical.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video can be useful for in-depth work where visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can provide shorter, on-the-go support or quick questions between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when schedules change.
