Christan centers sessions on what the client brings. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and offers practical skills and strategies when useful. Conversations are direct and aimed at sorting through problems and reducing overwhelm.
Her approach draws on several methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides tools for noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy frames work around the client's perspective and priorities. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, actionable steps that can lead to change.
She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help clients find their own reasons for change, and Narrative Therapy to examine how personal stories shape feelings and choices. These approaches combine to address immediate concerns and longer-term patterns.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. In online sessions this means the therapist follows what the client brings and helps organize next steps and skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online work often uses short exercises and homework to practice between sessions. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own reasons for change and build commitment; it is conversational and works well in remote sessions.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences, try different techniques, and adjust over time. Clients help set priorities and evaluate what is most useful for their situation.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a day, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use this flexibility to focus on practical skills, homework, and problem solving that fit everyday life.
