About Christine
Christine Frederick is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, relationship strain, anger, parenting challenges, and similar concerns.
She uses a strengths-based, human-centered stance that helps people identify practical resources they already have. Sessions focus on concrete steps clients can try between meetings, not on jargon or abstract theories. Christine aims to help someone reduce reactivity, manage frustration, and rebuild calmer patterns in daily life.
Christine draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow what matters most to each person and to keep sessions focused on individual goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts and behaviors that feed anger or anxiety, and Solution-Focused Therapy to develop brief, actionable strategies that can be tested quickly.
Her background includes work with depression, PTSD and addiction, as well as caregiving and end-of-life concerns. That variety has shaped a practical, problem-solving orientation useful when emotions feel overwhelming.
People who want straightforward tools for handling snapping, workplace frustration, resentment, or someone else’s anger will find a direct, skills-focused approach. Christine works in English and practices in Massachusetts.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Christine commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following what matters most to the client, which helps shape goals and keep sessions responsive. CBT breaks down the thoughts and behaviors that maintain anger or anxiety and offers concrete experiments to change them. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, testable changes that can produce quick improvements in daily functioning.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Christine aims to collaborate on which methods fit a person’s needs and goals, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. That collaborative process helps set realistic steps for reducing reactivity, managing frustration at work, or repairing strained relationships.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy routine, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or avoid travel time. Online work can make it easier to practice strategies between meetings and to try new behavior in everyday settings while still getting professional guidance.
