Christine Taylor, LPC

Christine Taylor is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 16 years of clinical experience helping people navigate difficult emotions and life transitions. She has worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds and addresses concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and histories of trauma and emotional abuse. Christine blends evidence-informed strategies with a humanistic, person-centered stance, adapting psychodynamic insights and cognitive-behavioral techniques to fit each client’s needs.

Her practice emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s unique path. Christine aims to offer encouragement and practical support as clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and pursue meaningful change. She frames therapy as a joint effort focused on the client’s goals and values, rather than a one-size-fits-all program.

Sessions are scheduled for 45 minutes, and clients select a weekly time slot on a first-come, first-served basis. Because sessions are delivered online, a working electrical power source and internet connection are required; if a power outage or connection problem occurs on either side the session will need to be rescheduled. If a client cannot attend a scheduled session Christine asks that they give notice the day before when possible. She does not provide crisis counseling on this platform; anyone experiencing an emergency should call 911, local emergency services, or go to the nearest hospital emergency department.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christine uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the discussion and the therapist offers empathy and support - this approach is useful for people seeking personal insight, self-esteem work, or help processing life transitions. She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. For clients facing relationship challenges, Christine incorporates Imago relationship therapy techniques that help partners improve communication, understand each other’s emotional needs, and repair patterns that create distance.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christine works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best align with their goals, needs, and preferences, and she tailors interventions over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical advantages for many people - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, accommodate mobility or geographic limitations, and maintain continuity of care when life is unpredictable. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to provide focused, effective support while working together with clients toward meaningful change.
