About Christina
Christina Brown is a Washington-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with four years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, depression, and major life changes. Her practice focuses on practical, moment-to-moment work to help people manage overwhelming feelings and make clearer decisions.
Christina uses a mix of conversational and evidence-informed methods. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what is happening now. She listens for patterns related to attachment, abandonment, codependency, and family-of-origin issues, and then helps people identify small changes that feel doable.
She regularly draws on techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness approaches to address anxiety, confidence, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and interpersonal challenges are central. Motivational Interviewing can be part of the work when people feel stuck about career or life choices.
Christina pays attention to how family blending, caregiver stress, body image, and past domestic violence or trauma affect day-to-day functioning. She also supports people navigating control issues, commitment questions, and co-occurring concerns that complicate recovery.
Her style centers on clear conversation, skill-building, and practical steps. People who are unsure what comes next often find the sessions useful for sorting priorities, trying small experiments, and planning manageable next steps.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Christina commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and accepting difficult thoughts while still taking meaningful action, which can help when people feel stuck after big changes. CBT breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors into manageable parts and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She and the client review goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what fits the person's needs and preferences. That shared decision-making helps shape which exercises and skills are emphasized.
If you plan to do sessions online, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow focused check-ins during work breaks. Some methods, like mindfulness practices or CBT homework review, translate well to remote work and can be used between meetings to reinforce progress.
