About Christine

Christine DeHart is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Arizona and Indiana with 15 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, LGBTQ concerns, relationship challenges, grief, and depression. Her practice also addresses addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, and sleep or eating struggles.

Christine uses straightforward talk and practical skills in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also uses attachment-based ideas and client-centered methods to look at how relationships and personal values affect present problems.

Sessions are collaborative and focused on specific changes a person wants to make. Christine includes techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when they fit the issue at hand. She aims to help people build clearer communication, manage strong emotions, and reduce avoidant habits.

Her background includes work with military-connected clients and with people who identify with alternative lifestyles and earth-based religions. She has operated a private practice in the Indianapolis area for many years and brings experience with caregiver stress, chronic illness, and end-of-life concerns.

Christine also works with issues such as ADHD, career concerns, midlife transitions, and compassion fatigue. In addition to clinical practice, she is a Reiki Master Teacher, which she has listed among her professional interests. People considering sessions typically complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling a first appointment.

How Christine’s approaches translate to online work

Christine often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT focuses on clear goals, experiments between sessions, and practical ways to reduce anxiety or break avoidance patterns.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how relationship patterns shape reactions, and on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the client's priorities. Attachment-based work helps with intimacy and repeated conflict, while client-centered methods make space for the person's own values and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That choice can change as progress is made and new issues come up.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins during busy days, and let conversations happen without travel. Licensed professionals can use session time to teach coping skills, review behavioral experiments, and practice communication exercises that fit into everyday life.
