About Christine
Christine Sande is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in North Carolina. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma, anger, depression, and parenting challenges. She speaks English and Italian and brings a calm, respectful approach to conversations about difficult topics.
Christine centers each session on the person's needs rather than a fixed script. She listens first, then helps set practical steps that fit daily life. Her work often focuses on coping skills, managing strong emotions, and reducing behaviors that interfere with functioning.
Background and approach
With three years of professional experience, Christine has supported people dealing with grief, relationship strain, body image and self-esteem, and life transitions. She also addresses blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, and challenges tied to addiction or domestic violence. She uses evidence-based techniques to guide the work and adapts them to each situation.
Sessions may include short-term problem solving and longer work on patterns that keep repeating. Christine aims to make progress feel manageable by breaking goals into small steps. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and practical strategies that can be tried between meetings.
For people exploring therapy for career stress, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, or finding life purpose, she offers steady support and collaborative planning. People who prefer speaking in Italian can do so, and services are provided from her North Carolina license, NC LCMHC 17334.
Evidence-based approaches and online support
Christine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-life changes. One common approach she uses teaches practical coping skills to manage anxiety and stress, like stepped breathing, grounding, and brief behavioral experiments to test new habits. These tools aim to reduce daily overwhelm and increase a sense of control.She also works with structured strategies for addiction and mood concerns, breaking problematic patterns into smaller steps and creating clear safety and relapse-prevention plans. This approach helps with urges, triggers, and rebuilding routines after setbacks.
Finding the right method is collaborative. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different techniques to see what fits best. Together you decide which strategies feel useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make attendance easier around work, school, and parenting. These options let people connect from home or during short breaks, and they allow follow-up through brief messages when problems arise between meetings.
