About Christina

Christina Marrow is a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience in the mental health field. She earned a master’s degree in counseling from LeTourneau University and later obtained her Texas LPC license, TX LPC 76038. Christina focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, grief, and intimacy-related issues.

She also works with clients managing trauma, post-traumatic stress, ADHD, and problems with self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Christina uses a direct but warm style in sessions. She listens without judgment and treats each person with respect and sensitivity. Conversations are interactive and centered on real-life steps.

Clients can expect practical ideas they can try between meetings. She draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and trauma-focused techniques. These approaches are used to help people identify unhelpful thinking, clarify values, and work through traumatic memories or reactions.

Treatment is shaped to fit what each person needs and prefers. Christina aims to come alongside people where they are and help them find manageable next steps. She emphasizes teamwork in setting goals and measuring progress.

The focus is on building skills people can use long after sessions end. Christina practices in Texas and provides services in English. She supports concerns commonly listed under family and parenting topics and related life changes, tailoring her approach to each person’s situation.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Christina commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused therapy in her online practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep problems like anxiety and depression going. Trauma-focused therapy focuses on safely processing upsetting memories and reactions so daily life becomes more manageable.

She also draws from acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Christina will talk with each person about goals and preferences and tailor the plan collaboratively rather than following one fixed method.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. These options make it easier to fit meetings into busy schedules and to keep progress moving when in-person visits aren’t convenient. The variety of formats supports consistent work on parenting, family-related issues, trauma recovery, and everyday coping skills.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
