About Christina

Christina Brooks is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She also supports people working through grief, eating and intimacy-related concerns, career questions, and compassion fatigue. Christina speaks English and has seven years of clinical experience.

Christina centers sessions on respect and sensitivity. She listens closely and tailors conversation to each person’s situation. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer ways to cope rather than jargon or one-size-fits-all advice.

Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. That means conversations start with the client's priorities, then add tools to change unhelpful thinking and build emotional regulation skills. Christina adapts methods to fit what a person wants to work on.

She often helps people manage life transitions, caregiving stress, chronic illness or pain, and family-of-origin issues. She also supports those dealing with postpartum depression, panic attacks, trauma symptoms, fertility and pregnancy-related concerns, and eating or body image problems.

Christina uses a collaborative process to set goals and track progress. She encourages small, achievable steps and practices between sessions. If you are thinking about starting therapy, she asks you to complete a short questionnaire and then schedules sessions based on availability.

How Christina's Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and priorities. The therapist listens closely and shapes sessions around what the client wants to address, which helps when coping with stress, grief, or life changes.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. It teaches practical tools to reframe thoughts and change behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and eating-related concerns.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. It includes breathing and grounding techniques, along with ways to handle conflict and reduce impulsive reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the mix of listening, skill-building, and practical exercises over time so the plan matches progress.

The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can tailor sessions to practical constraints like work breaks, quieter surroundings, or less screen time.
