Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Christina Burnett uses a client-centered style, which means sessions focus on the client’s perspective, strengths, and goals while creating space to talk through what feels most urgent. This approach can be especially helpful when stress, relationship strain, or major life changes make it hard to know where to start.She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that looks at how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another. CBT can support people who want clearer coping tools for anxiety, depression, or patterns that keep getting in the way. Motivational Interviewing is another approach she draws from, helping clients explore ambivalence and strengthen personal motivation for change, including around substance use and other habit patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina works collaboratively with clients to understand needs, goals, and preferences, then adjusts the focus and tools over time so therapy feels relevant and workable.
Online therapy adds flexibility by making it possible to meet through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to stay engaged in therapy during busy weeks, changing schedules, or when support is needed between sessions.
