About Christina
Christina Mossaad is an AASW social worker with five years in direct therapeutic support and over 20 years of broader professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strains, self-esteem concerns and coping with life changes. Christina also lists compassion fatigue among her focus areas.
She begins by listening to each person’s story and recognising their existing strengths. Conversations focus on practical steps people can use day to day. Sessions are grounded and straightforward, with attention to what feels achievable between meetings.
Christina draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based work to help with repetitive worries, relationship patterns and shifting priorities. She also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and client-centred methods when they suit a person’s goals. The emphasis is on skills that reduce overwhelm and on clearer ways to make decisions about next steps.
People contact her for help with panic attacks, mood problems, body image, loneliness and communication difficulties. She also supports caregivers dealing with stress and those thinking about life purpose after a major change. Her work addresses guilt, shame and control issues with practical strategies and reflective conversation.
Christina works in Australia and offers sessions in English. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The booking process uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Christina draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and taking workable steps toward what matters while managing difficult thoughts. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relationship patterns and how early bonds influence current interactions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thinking patterns that maintain anxiety and to develop practical strategies for change.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina treats this as a collaborative process and will work with each person to identify which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. That might mean combining elements of different models to address stress, panic, parenting pressures or questions about life purpose.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family or health commitments, and they can reduce travel time. Phone check-ins may be shorter and use less bandwidth, while video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when preferred. Practical details such as scheduling, subscription billing and how to book the first appointment are provided during the sign-up process.
