About Christina

Christina Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 14 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Christina focuses on practical steps people can use to change patterns that feel stuck.

She treats anger as a tangible problem that shows up at work, at home, and inside relationships. Sessions often look at what comes before a flare-up and what happens after. She helps people notice triggers, practice different responses, and reduce the fallout from angry episodes.

Christina draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on trauma, anxiety, and mood concerns. She emphasizes clients' own strengths and life knowledge while offering tools to manage strong emotions. That means learning small skills people can use between sessions.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. She invites clients to set clear goals and to track what helps. Over time the focus shifts from crisis coping to steady routine changes that lower overall stress and reactivity.

Christina offers sessions in English and works with people located in Pennsylvania. She does not accept international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform indicated.

How sessions work

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions

Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anger, trauma, and mood concerns. One approach focuses on identifying triggers and changing the patterns that lead to angry responses. This involves practical exercises and in-session role practice designed to make different choices easier in the moment.

Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed work for people who have experienced abuse or past injuries. That work helps people reduce reactivity and manage intrusive memories or flashbacks so anger does not dominate daily life. Both approaches aim to build small, usable skills rather than rely on abstract ideas.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and current problems. She encourages checking what helps and adjusting methods over time so therapy stays relevant.

The original biography did not specify which online session formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals often use online sessions to maintain consistency and practice real-life skills between meetings.
