About Christina
Christina Johnson is an LPC with 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. She focuses on practical steps parents and caregivers can use when family tensions feel overwhelming. Christina speaks plainly and centers the person's own strengths when planning change.
She sees each person as the expert on their own story and builds on what is already working. Christina offers steady support for people dealing with traumatic or abusive experiences, and she helps with post-traumatic stress and attachment concerns. Sessions can include talking through difficult memories and practicing ways to respond differently to triggers.
Work with her often addresses everyday family problems and communication breakdowns. Christina helps people name patterns that increase conflict and then try clearer ways of asking for what they need. She also supports those facing caregiver stress or the emotional effects of intellectual disability in a loved one.
People come to Christina for help with shame, guilt, jealousy, and resentment. She often guides clients toward forgiveness when that is a personal goal, and toward managing impulsivity in ways that protect relationships. Her approach is straightforward and solution-focused without rushing the process.
Christina practices in Pennsylvania and conducts therapy in English. She encourages taking one small step at a time and guides each person to their next practical move.
How therapeutic techniques translate to online work
Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, teachable skills. One common approach helps people learn to notice and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior, which can reduce anxiety and depression by teaching practical coping steps. Another approach centers on processing traumatic experiences in a paced way so painful memories feel less overwhelming and reactions become easier to manage. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and daily life, and then recommend techniques that fit those needs. Together they track what helps and adjust methods over time to find the best match. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy family schedule. It can reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins on a break from work or caregiving. If you prefer a specific session format, confirm the options before booking since formats were not listed in the biography.
