About Christina
Christina Kulp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of experience. She practices in Pennsylvania and helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes among other issues.
She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a primary approach she uses, alongside mindfulness and narrative techniques. Sessions focus on concrete skills, manageable experiments, and clearer ways of responding to problems.
Christina trained at Marywood University for her MSW and completed undergraduate studies at Cedar Crest College in psychology and sociology. She has worked across healthcare, non-profit, and geriatric settings and holds post-graduate certificates in gerontology and palliative/end-of-life care. She is also pursuing a doctorate in social work through a combined program at Kutztown and Millersville Universities.
Her work draws on several therapeutic viewpoints including psychodynamic ideas and motivational interviewing. That mix aims to address patterns that began long ago while also teaching tools for the present. Sessions often balance talking about the past with practical steps to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.
People typically leave sessions with clear suggestions to try between meetings. Christina uses a strengths-based stance and pays attention to trauma history when relevant. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How Christina blends CBT and mindful approaches for online work
Christina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions focus on clear goals, short experiments to try between meetings, and step-by-step skill building for problems like anxiety, sleep disruption, or low mood.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach attention and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and support better sleep and emotion regulation. Motivational Interviewing is added when people want help clarifying goals and increasing readiness for change; it focuses on practical next steps and building motivation.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to pick approaches that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts methods as progress is reviewed.
