About Christina

Christina DeAngelis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, career challenges, and the effects of trauma and grief.

Background and approach

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and collaborates with clients to develop goals and a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs. Her practice also addresses relationship and family difficulties, intimacy-related issues, addictions, and compassion fatigue, along with a range of related life concerns such as workplace issues and money and financial stress.

Christina draws on evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), mindfulness-based techniques, and motivational interviewing to support clients as they navigate life changes and build coping skills.

With three years of professional experience, she emphasizes partnership in the therapeutic process and encourages clients to recognize the courage it takes to seek change. Services are offered in English and are available through a range of online session formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

How Christina’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns, develop practical coping skills, and manage intense emotions. CBT focuses on recognizing and changing thought-behavior cycles that contribute to stress and anxiety, while DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for people facing overwhelming feelings or relationship challenges.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) when addressing relational dynamics, helping clients explore emotional responses and strengthen vulnerable communication. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work; Christina collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, and she adapts techniques over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy with her is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase scheduling flexibility and make attending sessions more manageable. These options support ongoing skill practice, brief check-ins between sessions, and consistent access to care that can fit around work, family, and other responsibilities.
