    About Christine

    Christine Perez is a licensed counselor who brings 24 years of experience to her practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Christine uses clear, practical approaches to help clients find better ways to cope and make changes in their lives.

    Her work draws on Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes but feel stuck. She also uses client-centered techniques to listen closely and tailor each session to what matters most to the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness tools appear in sessions when they can help shift unhelpful thoughts and build steadier moods.

    Christine often addresses self-esteem struggles, social anxiety, and the emotional fallout of life transitions. She helps people who are dealing with postpartum mood changes, seasonal mood shifts, or ongoing struggles such as eating and food-related issues. First responder stress, control issues, feelings of emptiness, and questions about life purpose are also part of her focus.

    She works to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk through painful experiences and try small, practical steps. Sessions are meant to help people identify patterns, test new behaviors, and notice gradual improvements. Christine aims to meet each person where they are and move at a pace that feels manageable.

    Her credentials include LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) and LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor). She practices in Kansas and conducts sessions in English.

  2. How therapeutic approaches guide online work

    Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses questions and reflections to build motivation and reduce resistance, which can help with habits, mood, or goal-directed changes.

    Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and empathy. The therapist follows the client's lead, offering a nonjudgmental space to sort out emotions and make decisions at a comfortable pace.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that can reduce anxiety and depression.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine methods based on goals, preferences, and how things are progressing. That helps keep sessions relevant and focused on what the client wants to change.

    The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a day without long travel. Many people find online work helps keep momentum between sessions and allows for shorter check-ins when needed. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to make sure they fit your schedule and needs.
