About Christina
Christina Brooks is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with seven years of experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, eating and food-related issues, grief, and compassion fatigue.
Christina uses straightforward, goal-focused conversations to identify what is getting in the way. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and then tries different ways of responding. Sessions are practical and structured, with clear steps to practice between meetings.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to track thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns that maintain distress. Christina also uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. When helpful, she incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and coping skills.
Her background includes work with people dealing with chronic pain, fertility and pregnancy-related concerns, postpartum depression, trauma, and family of origin issues. Christina supports people managing career stress, life changes, and questions about life purpose. She pays attention to communication problems and caregiving stress to make therapy relevant to daily routines.
Sessions focus on practical tools people can use right away. Christina asks about specific goals, tracks progress, and adjusts strategies when something does not work. If you want structured, action-oriented help for anxiety, eating concerns, grief, or parenting strain, she offers an approach that centers skills practice and problem solving.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems in place. CBT sessions focus on specific skills and small experiments to try between appointments, which can fit well into a weekly routine.She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize listening and reflecting the concerns a person brings. That approach keeps the work grounded in what matters most to the individual. When emotional regulation is a goal, she draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy elements to teach concrete coping skills and distress-tolerance strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She will review options and suggest practical steps to test what helps.
