About Cristina

Cristina Juisti is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of experience in community mental health serving adults and older adults in the Greater Philadelphia area. She focuses on helping people who are coping with depression, mood swings, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and the challenges that accompany major life transitions. Cristina works with a wide range of concerns including stress, self-esteem struggles, relationship and attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, and issues that affect women across the lifespan.

Cristina emphasizes finding hope and practical ways to move forward. She offers a nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore their feelings, identify existing strengths, and consider choices they may not have seen before. By combining empathic listening with strategies drawn from client-centered, cognitive behavioral, and motivational approaches, she supports clients in developing new ways of responding to difficult situations. Her goal is to empower people to build resilience and create meaningful change in everyday life.

Whether working with younger adults or those aged 55 and older, Cristina aims to help each person clarify goals, practice new coping skills, and take steps toward a more fulfilling future. The therapeutic process is collaborative, focused on recognizing options and fostering practical solutions that can lead to positive outcomes.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Cristina uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic environment where a person’s goals and experiences guide the work. This approach helps people who need space to explore emotions, clarify values, and build self-understanding.

She also incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and learning practical skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood challenges. CBT is useful for those seeking structured tools to change how they think and respond.

Motivational interviewing is used when ambivalence about change is present; through collaborative, nonconfrontational conversation, Cristina supports clients in discovering their own motivations and moving toward meaningful steps.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Cristina works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and those who prefer remote care. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals and to continue therapy through life transitions and changing circumstances.
