About Christine

Christine Snead is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience in mental health care. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting concerns. Christine uses approachable methods to help people manage difficult moments and build everyday coping skills.

She trained at Auburn University and has worked across a range of settings over her career. That experience includes helping people dealing with grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues related to identity and intimacy.

Background and approach

Christine also supports those navigating career challenges, caregiver stress, and the effects of major life changes. Her work draws on client-centered ideas that place the person’s goals first. Christine also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice unhelpful thinking and try small practical changes.

Emotionally-focused approaches guide conversations about connection and closeness when relationships are strained. Sessions are conversational and action-oriented. Christine helps people set clear, achievable steps and checks in on progress.

She aims to create a calm, direct space where worries can be named and worked through. People come to her for a range of concerns, including parenting challenges, substance use, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is flexible and shaped by each person’s needs and goals as they move forward.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people set their own goals. In online sessions this means conversations that follow the person’s priorities and move at their pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple exercises to test new ways of thinking. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress through short practical tasks and homework. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and change patterns in close relationships by naming emotions and trying new ways of connecting. EFT is useful when relationship concerns or intimacy issues are central to the work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different methods, and work together to decide what fits best. This is a collaborative process that adapts as progress is made and circumstances change.

Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexibility and easier scheduling. Video calls let you read facial cues during emotional conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, coping reminders, or quick coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent despite busy schedules or travel.
