About Christina

Christina Reyes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and problems with intimacy and relationships. She speaks English and offers sessions to people in Texas and internationally.

Background and approach

Christina aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so people can start feeling steadier in daily life. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth.

Christina listens first, then helps people name what matters and set small goals. She uses exercises and conversations that are easy to try between sessions so progress can continue outside the appointment.

Christina draws from several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts, elements of dialectical behavior therapy for emotional regulation, and the Gottman Method for relationship-related skills.

She blends those with client-centered listening to keep the work focused on the person in front of her. Typical topics Christina addresses include attachment and abandonment fears, communication problems, jealousy, isolation, body image, and obsessive or compulsive behaviors.

She also supports people navigating separation and the emotional fallout of relationship changes. With three years of clinical experience, Christina aims for clear, manageable steps rather than long lists of tasks.

Sessions may include skill practice, role-play, values work, and short home assignments. The goal is to build steady skills that make everyday life feel more manageable and purposeful.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Christina often uses the Gottman Method to teach practical communication and conflict skills that can help with relationship stress and intimacy problems. Gottman-style exercises focus on improving small daily interactions and reducing reactive patterns.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, to clarify values and develop small actions that align with what matters most. ACT helps when worry or avoidance gets in the way of meaningful daily life. In addition, client-centered work provides a supportive, listening space where the person’s goals guide the pace and focus of sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a joint effort. Christina will talk with each person about goals, try a few strategies, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to find methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging allows for brief check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and fit into busy lives.
