About Christine

LCSW in Texas with eight years of clinical experience, Christine Kobes helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes. She also focuses on communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, life purpose, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, women’s issues, and workplace concerns. Christine works from client-centered, cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused perspectives to guide sessions.

Christine uses straightforward conversation to learn what matters to each person. She asks questions, reflects back what she hears, and helps identify small, practical steps. Sessions are grounded in real-life goals such as reducing worry, improving sleep, or navigating a separation.

Her client-centered approach prioritizes the person’s experience and goals. Cognitive behavioral ideas are used when thinking and behavior patterns contribute to distress. Motivational interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. Solution-focused techniques keep work goal-oriented and efficient.

She trained at the University of Houston and holds a Master of Social Work, and she maintains her LCSW credential in Texas. Her background includes nearly a decade of helping people cope with emotional and relational challenges.

People meet her for practical tools and plain talk rather than lengthy theory. She encourages small experiments between sessions to test new ways of coping and interacting. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling options.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change, useful for stress, depression, and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises. It is often used for anxiety, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress by teaching specific skills and homework practices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christine will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try methods in a collaborative way to see what fits.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, or allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. These practical benefits can help people keep momentum while testing tools learned in sessions.
