About Christina

Christina Phillips is a licensed clinical mental health counselor who draws on practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage anxiety and stress. She uses straightforward tools to address panic episodes, mood shifts, and overwhelming worry so daily life feels more manageable. Christina emphasizes strengths and collaboration in each session.

She believes clients know their own stories and brings curiosity to understand what matters most. Sessions focus on short-term strategies and longer-term skills so people can handle triggers and regain a sense of control. Christina talks through concrete steps, like changing thought patterns and building calm skills, rather than relying on jargon.

Her work includes support for trauma and abuse recovery, mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, and relationship-related concerns like caregiver stress, communication problems, and abandonment issues. Christina also helps people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, loneliness, and questions about life purpose.

Across seven years of practice she has combined cognitive-behavioral approaches with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. She draws on trauma-focused strategies when needed and uses motivational interviewing to strengthen clients' readiness for change. Her style is practical, warm, and goal-oriented.

Christina holds the Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential, LCMHC, in North Carolina. Sessions are conducted in English, and she accepts international clients. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site's steps to begin therapy.

How approach and online sessions work together

Christina uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for panic, anxiety, and mood concerns and focuses on practical exercises and skills you can use between sessions.

She also integrates mindfulness therapy to teach present-moment awareness and simple calming practices. Mindfulness can reduce reactivity and help during moments of intense anxiety or panic.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, symptoms, and daily life. That plan can shift as progress is made and new needs appear.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm available formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. Ask about format options and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be arranged to suit your routine.
