Evidence-Based Techniques and How Online Therapy Helps

Christen Aiguier draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize skill development and practical coping strategies. These approaches teach tools for managing stress and anxiety, such as identifying patterns that increase distress and practicing concrete strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. They are well suited to people seeking actionable steps to feel more in control.

She also integrates strengths-focused, exploratory work that helps clients clarify values, address issues of identity and self-esteem, and navigate life transitions. This style supports processing grief, examining sources of guilt or shame, and rediscovering purpose during midlife or aging-related changes. Both approaches aim to be collaborative and tailored to the individual’s needs.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christen works together with each person to determine which techniques fit best based on their goals, preferences, and current circumstances. Online therapy offers flexible options - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to schedule sessions, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from home or elsewhere when needed.
