Christina Huber, LCSW

Christina Huber is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Indiana with nine years of clinical experience. She brings a personal understanding of the therapy journey, having been a client herself, and uses that perspective to create an empathetic, down-to-earth approach that helps people feel seen and supported. Christina earned a Bachelor of Social Work in 2012 and a Master of Social Work in 2013 from the University of Southern Indiana, and she began her career providing therapy to adults, children, adolescents, families, and couples through a local mental health agency.

After six and a half years in that agency setting, she transitioned to private practice in order to form deeper, more individualized connections with the people she serves. As a licensed clinician she focuses on practical, collaborative work to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief and trauma, addictions, self-esteem, parenting and family challenges, sleep and eating struggles, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and career-related stress. She also works with LGBT clients and those coping with life changes and compassion fatigue.

Christina blends compassion with clinical knowledge to meet clients where they are, matching their energy and motivation to the pace of treatment. While newer to providing online therapy, she has a track record of helping clients develop healthier thoughts, routines, and coping skills. She encourages honesty and openness and partners with clients to pursue realistic goals that promote healing and growth.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Work

Christina draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and emotionally-focused therapy to tailor online work to each person's needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and a collaborative relationship so clients can explore their values and goals at their own pace - it is helpful for building self-esteem, processing grief, and coping with life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and support practical habit changes. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people and couples identify and express underlying emotions that drive patterns in relationships, making it useful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and relationship repair.

Finding the right fit is part of the therapeutic process. Christina works collaboratively with each person to determine which approaches best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting strategies as progress is made. The plan evolves through conversation and shared decision making between the therapist and client.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to engage in treatment from locations that suit them and at times that fit their schedules. These options make it easier to maintain consistent support and to apply therapeutic strategies in the context of everyday life.
