About Christina

Christina Rolerson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eleven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people through big life transitions and the everyday problems that pile up. Christina aims to create a supportive space where people feel heard and understood.

Her background includes working with people facing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and parenting or relationship concerns. She has also treated clients with OCD, ADHD, and histories of abuse or trauma.

Background and approach

Christina draws on years of hands-on work to guide practical next steps in therapy. Christina’s style is client-centered and strengths-based. She leans on empathy and respect when helping people identify what matters and make changes.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs. She integrates several approaches to tailor care to the individual. That can mean using cognitive tools to change unhelpful thoughts, emotion-regulation skills to manage overwhelming feelings, or strategies that explore how early relationships affect current life.

The focus is on clear, doable steps rather than abstract theory. Christina aims to partner with clients to map out a step-by-step plan. That plan typically includes concrete goals, small experiments to try between sessions, and regular check-ins on progress.

She welcomes those taking an active step toward change and wants therapy to feel useful from the start.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarifies what matters so they can act in ways that match their values. It is useful for worry, stress, and decisions about life direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It helps with anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and coping strategies that reduce distress.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high. It can be helpful for intense emotions and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals, preferences, and everyday life. That means trying methods, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, or family life and allow follow-up between sessions using brief messages. The emphasis is on practical support that fits a person’s schedule and helps them try change in real life.

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.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
