How Christine works
She helps clients talk about difficult topics and try new ways of relating that can reduce tension and build closeness. Her work draws on techniques that focus on emotions, behavior, and attachment patterns. Christine uses tools from Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method to strengthen connection and repair hurt.
She also uses cognitive behavior strategies and mindfulness to help people manage anxiety and stress that affect relationships. Sessions involve talking through patterns, practicing new ways to communicate, and trying small experiments between sessions. The aim is to make changes that feel doable and relevant to everyday life.
Christine brings four years of experience helping people address relationship, intimacy, and self-esteem concerns. She sees clients in California and conducts sessions in English. People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Online support options
Online approaches for relationship and intimacy work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of connection shape current relationships and emotional responses; it helps people notice attachment needs and respond differently in close moments. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on the emotions under conflict and teaches partners and individuals to identify and share feelings that can rebuild trust and closeness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that increase anxiety or interfere with communication and helps clients practice clearer, calmer responses.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will collaborate with each client to match methods to their goals, needs, and personal style. That means trying techniques together in sessions and adjusting the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use visual cues for couples work and communication practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing check-ins, brief coaching, and reminders between sessions, making therapy fit into busy schedules.
