About Christina
Christina Kulp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of clinical experience.

Christina uses straightforward, practical methods to help people make changes that feel manageable. Sessions emphasize understanding current patterns, noticing unhelpful thoughts, and trying small shifts that lead to relief.
How Christina works
She draws on techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help with daily coping and symptom reduction. Her background includes work across geriatric, nonprofit, and healthcare settings. She holds post-graduate certificates in gerontology and palliative and end-of-life care and is pursuing a doctorate in social work.
This clinical experience informs support for aging-related concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and caregiver stress. Christina adapts her approach to each person’s needs, combining motivational interviewing, narrative and psychodynamic perspectives when useful. That means she helps people clarify goals, reframe stories they tell about themselves, and look at deeper patterns that affect emotions and relationships.
People can expect a respectful, empathic space where practical steps are paired with exploration of meaning and life purpose. Christina aims to help clients build on strengths, improve communication, and develop sustainable coping skills for both short-term problems and longer-term growth.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Christina commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lessen reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.She also draws on motivational interviewing to help clarify goals and strengthen commitment to change. That approach uses curious, nonjudgmental conversation to find what matters most and to set attainable next steps. Together, these methods can address coping, life transitions, caregiver strain, and relationship concerns in a collaborative way.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to choose or mix methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions begin with practical goals and adapt over time so the plan fits the client’s life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat provide ongoing support between sessions or a way to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
