About Christine

Christine Vollmer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with 16 years of practice. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, anger, and major life changes. Christine also addresses addictions, relationship struggles, sleep and eating concerns, and career-related stress.

She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. Christine draws from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to offer tools for mood and behavior changes.

Her style gives room to talk about past experiences that still affect day-to-day life. That background work is paired with short-term strategies for coping and symptom relief. She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small shifts that make daily life easier.

Christine has worked with issues tied to attachment, abandonment, chronic illness, caregiving stress, and aging concerns. She addresses anger alongside related problems like control issues, guilt, shame, and isolation. Christine pays attention to how identity, life stage, and relationships shape a person’s reactions.

Sessions typically include skills practice, thought and behavior experiments, and reflective conversation about history and patterns. The aim is to increase practical coping skills while understanding the roots of recurring responses. People who want clear steps and honest reflection often find this approach useful.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Christine often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behavior. CBT offers concrete exercises for anger, anxiety, and mood shifts and tends to focus on measurable changes over weeks.

She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. Mindfulness helps people notice rising tension early so they can choose a different response instead of reacting automatically.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels practical. Together they pick methods that match the problem and the person's daily life, adjusting plans as progress is made.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because this profile does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions let them fit therapy into work breaks or a quieter part of the day, and they can reduce travel time. If video is difficult, other formats may be more convenient for shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth needs. Discuss format questions during the initial scheduling step to pick what works best for you and your routine.
