About Christine

Christine Jacobsen is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression and life transitions. Sessions focus on practical ways to handle current problems and reduce distress in day-to-day life.

She uses client-centered therapy to create a conversational, goal-focused space where clients set the pace and priorities. She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to identify thinking patterns that feed strong emotions and to test new behaviors. Those approaches are used to address anxiety, mood concerns, coping with life changes, and interpersonal strain.

Her background includes work in both outpatient and inpatient settings and experience with a range of issues such as trauma and grief. She has worked with people facing career stress, addiction concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting challenges. She also lists experience with ADHD, bipolar mood disorders, and postpartum depression.

Christine describes developing treatment plans that include short- and long-term goals based on a person’s history and current situation. That means sessions often include practical skill building, behavioral experiments, and clear homework between meetings. The focus is on step-by-step changes rather than quick fixes.

She practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To start, readers are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her client-centered and CBT approaches translate online

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s priorities and uses straightforward conversation to set goals and next steps. It is useful for people who want to work through anger, stress, relationship strain, or life transitions at their own pace.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviors interact. CBT methods often include tracking reactions, trying small behavior changes, and testing new ways of thinking. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns, anger, and coping skills work.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Christine will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That discussion helps shape session plans, homework, and practical skill-building between meetings.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to continue work between in-person visits. Discussing how sessions will be scheduled and how to structure homework is part of the first meetings, so online work can be practical and goal oriented.
