About Christina
Christina Anderson brings a practical, conversational style to therapy. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience in mental health and addictions. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, substance use, mood disorders, and life changes.
Her approach aims to make sessions feel like a helpful conversation that moves toward real goals. Christina uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values.
Background and approach
Client-centered work shapes sessions around what matters most to the person. Motivational interviewing supports people who want change but feel stuck. Her background includes work in community agencies, schools, hospitals, home visits, crisis response teams, EMS, and specialty health care settings.
That range gives her experience with addiction, trauma, grief, parenting challenges, and first responder issues. She also has experience with hospice and end-of-life counseling and supporting people living with HIV/AIDS. Christina has worked with people across the lifespan and across many life situations.
She helps with practical problems like sleep, eating, career stress, and relationship concerns, and with complex issues like post-traumatic stress and bipolar disorder. She pays attention to each person's goals and pace of change. Therapy is offered in formats that fit busy lives, including video, phone, chat, and text messaging.
Sessions are arranged through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling steps once a person chooses to start.

Online support
How her approaches work in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience, shaping sessions around their priorities to build trust and clarity. Motivational Interviewing uses gentle questions and reflections to support people who want change but feel ambivalent, which is often helpful for addictions and behavior change.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Christina will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most helpful. That collaborative process lets goals and methods shift as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit brief updates, coaching-style check-ins, or when someone prefers typing. These choices make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical steps and real-world change.
