About Christina

Christina Brooks is an LPC based in Texas who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and food-related issues, grief, parenting challenges, career questions, and depression.

Background and approach

With seven years of clinical experience, she emphasizes respectful, sensitive care and adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person's individual needs. Her work also addresses compassion fatigue, attachment concerns, chronic pain or illness, communication difficulties, and life changes such as fertility or pregnancy-related issues.

Christina blends client-centered listening with practical, skills-based interventions drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She aims to create a collaborative space where clients explore goals, develop coping strategies, and build emotional insight.

Whether someone is managing panic attacks, postpartum mood shifts, family-of-origin dynamics, or questions of life purpose and forgiveness, she offers structured guidance paired with empathy. Clients can expect an adaptable approach that honors personal values while introducing tools for symptom relief and better communication.

Christina supports people through both short-term challenges and longer-term growth, tailoring pacing and techniques to match each person’s priorities and readiness for change.

How Christina’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Christina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, panic, depression, and eating-related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her work, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals guide the pace and focus of sessions. She may incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when those tools fit a client’s needs.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Christina collaborates with each person to determine what methods best match their priorities and preferences. She tailors treatment plans based on goals, symptom patterns, and readiness for change so that therapy feels useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals while allowing clients to choose the format that works best for their routines and communication style.
