Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Dr. Christina Jurekovic

Dr. Jurekovic uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, listening-focused environment where the client’s values and goals guide the work; this approach is helpful for building self-awareness, improving relationships, and navigating life transitions. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy - CBT - which looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Additionally, mindfulness therapy is used to cultivate present-moment awareness and emotion regulation, supporting coping with persistent worry, grief, or burnout.

Determining the best approach is part of the collaborative process. Dr. Jurekovic works with each person to combine methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time to support progress in a way that feels right for the client.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, during work breaks, or while traveling, and they provide multiple ways to stay connected to care when in-person visits are not possible.
