Christina Brooks, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Christina

Christina Brooks is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, eating and relationship issues. She also supports those coping with grief, intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, career questions, and changes that come with life transitions.

Christina writes and talks plainly with clients, and she aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is nervous or unsure. She works from a place of respect and compassion, and she individualizes the way she talks and plans work to match each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Christina uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy alongside skills from dialectical behavior therapy when useful. She also centers the person’s experience with client-centered therapy, which means the client’s goals guide the process. Over seven years she has supported people with issues like panic attacks, postpartum depression, compassion fatigue, and chronic pain or illness.

Christina also addresses family of origin concerns, fertility stress, and communication problems that affect daily life. She brings attention to both immediate coping skills and longer term patterns. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps that a person can practice between meetings.

Christina will work with each person to set goals, try techniques in real life, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Her approach aims to balance problem-solving with emotional support. Christina holds LPC, Texas license number TX LPC 76595, and provides services from Texas in English.

She offers several remote session formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Christina uses a mix of client-centered work and structured skills-based therapies. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s experience and goals, with the therapist following the client’s lead and offering support without imposing a fixed plan. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts and behaviors into manageable parts and teaches concrete strategies to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that can help with intense emotions and relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative work. Christina discusses needs and preferences with each person and adjusts techniques based on how things go. She aims to blend practical skill-building with supportive listening so goals are realistic and useful in daily life.

Online therapy makes these methods accessible through several formats. Video calls let conversations feel close to an in-person visit, while phone sessions can be easier when video isn’t possible. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and skill practice between meetings. These options give flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited mobility while keeping the focus on steady progress and usable tools.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
