Christanne Brunner, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Christanne

Christanne Brunner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside relationship and personal stress. She talks with people about anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Her approach aims to be practical and straightforward so parents can use new skills between sessions.

Christanne uses treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Solution-Focused Therapy to address everyday problems.

Background and approach

She draws from twelve years of overall experience to tailor sessions to each person's situation. Sessions center on clear communication, setting small goals, and building coping skills that fit family life. In conversation she creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can share what feels hard.

She encourages small steps toward change and focuses on what can work now. The work includes practicing new ways of talking and trying specific strategies at home. Christanne also addresses workplace stress, compassion fatigue, gender dysphoria, LGBT topics, and women's issues when they affect family or parenting roles.

She emphasizes practical tools for managing emotions and improving relationships. Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented. Parents and partners can expect focused sessions that aim to improve communication, reduce distress, and support day-to-day functioning.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Christanne often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

She also uses the Gottman Method to help partners improve communication and solve recurring conflicts with clear strategies that can be practiced at home. Solution-Focused Therapy is part of her work too, emphasizing small, achievable goals and spotting what already works in daily life.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Christanne will discuss options and adapt methods to match a client's goals, preferences, and what feels doable for their family or schedule.

Online therapy with her is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy family routines and to use therapy tools in real time. The variety of options supports flexible scheduling and ongoing contact between sessions when needed.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
