More about Christine
- 8 years' experience
- Female
- AASW
I am a warm, non-judgmental therapist with over 14 years of experience as a social worker, including the past 2 years as an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker. I bring extensive experience supporting children, adolescents, and families across a wide range of challenges, including chronic illness, depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, self-esteem, and motivation.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each individual. I draw on a range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.
I aim to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to explore their experiences and work toward meaningful change at their own pace.
I offer live audio and video sessions using the platform, however I do not have the capacity to accept live chat or messaging services therapeutically.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
