About Christina

LCSW in Pennsylvania with 12 years of clinical experience, Christina Burnett focuses on stress, anxiety, addiction, relationships, and life changes. Christina uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Jungian Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing in her work and talks with each person about practical steps they can take.

Christina began her counseling career in community mental health and substance abuse settings. She supported adults involved with criminal and family court systems and worked with people facing substance use and legal challenges. That early work shaped her focus on coping skills and practical problem solving.

She earned a bachelor's degree in psychology from Penn State University and a Master of Social Work from the University of New England. Christina obtained her LCSW in Pennsylvania after completing required supervision and passing the state board exam.

In sessions she draws on client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. She uses CBT techniques to identify patterns of thinking that keep stress and anxiety active. Motivational Interviewing appears when change feels stalled and a person needs help finding their own reasons to move forward.

Christina works with adults on issues such as depression, trauma and abuse, anger, relationship conflict, workplace problems, and young adult concerns. She also addresses addiction and process addictions like gambling and exercise, along with attachment and communication difficulties.

Her practical approach centers on clear goals and doable steps. People can expect direct conversation about symptoms, coping strategies, and plans to try between sessions. To begin, complete the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Christina's approaches work for online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities. The therapist follows what matters most and helps clarify goals and next steps; this approach is useful for relationship concerns, stress, and self-esteem work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Sessions use concrete exercises and homework to reduce anxiety, panic attacks, and depressive patterns.

The therapist treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan together as progress or obstacles appear.

Confirm current session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discussing format and scheduling preferences at the first appointment helps create a practical plan that fits everyday life.
