About Christine
Christine Sanchez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and family concerns. She uses practical tools to address relationship strain, grief, trauma, eating issues, bipolar symptoms, and attention challenges. Her tone in sessions is warm and nonjudgmental.
She aims to create space where clients feel heard and treated with respect. Christine blends straightforward skills coaching with talk therapy. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to teach coping skills.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on small, doable steps clients can use between meetings. The work is collaborative and paced to each persons needs. Her background includes six years of counseling experience in roles that included crisis response and skills coaching.
That experience contributes to a practical, problem-solving approach in sessions. Christine keeps things focused on what will improve day-to-day functioning and relationships. In therapy she prioritizes clear communication and building self-awareness.
Common themes she addresses include family of origin issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and finding life purpose. She also supports people dealing with social anxiety, workplace stress, and challenges common to young adults. Sessions may incorporate behavioral strategies, emotion regulation techniques, and acceptance-based practices.
The goal is to equip clients with tools they can use outside of the therapy room. Christine encourages people to take gradual steps toward more meaningful and manageable daily life.
How therapy approaches fit into online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters most and take small actions toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for stress, anxiety, life changes, and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and workplace or social stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing impulsive behaviors. It can help with anger, self-harm urges, and emotional regulation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christine will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. She often blends elements from different therapies so plans fit the individual rather than forcing one model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy families and people with tight schedules. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different comfort levels and routines. This variety makes it easier to practice new skills between sessions and maintain continuity of care when life gets hectic.
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.
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.
