About Christina

Dr. Christina Jurekovic brings a client-centered orientation grounded in practical, evidence-informed techniques to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside person-centered methods to help clients clarify goals, shift unhelpful thinking patterns, and develop coping skills that can reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. With a focus on resilience, she emphasizes both short-term relief and tools for longer-term growth.

Dr. Jurekovic has worked in counseling roles since 2014, including positions as a school counselor, a licensed professional counselor (LPC), and a professor of clinical mental health counseling.

Those varied settings shaped her belief that therapy is most effective when tailored to an individual's needs, whether the presenting concerns involve trauma and abuse, parenting and family issues, career and self-esteem, ADHD, or chronic health and caregiver stress. She uses compassionate guidance and practical strategies to help clients move forward with clarity and renewed confidence.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life

Dr. Jurekovic commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems by teaching concrete coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, helping clients explore values, build self-awareness, and find solutions that feel authentic.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This means adapting techniques over time and combining approaches when that better serves a client's objectives.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility for varying schedules and comfort levels. These options allow clients to continue care from different locations and to choose the communication style that fits their daily life while maintaining continuity of care with a licensed professional.
