About Christin
Christin Conkle is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, family conflict, and depression. She has worked in California for 20 years and focuses on practical steps parents can use right away. Christin aims to meet people where they are and offer steady, respectful support.
Her approach is direct and collaborative. Sessions center on clear goals and simple tools that can be tried between meetings.
Background and approach
She draws on several evidence-informed methods to shape conversations and homework that fit each person's life. Christin often addresses worries about body image and disordered eating with a focus on small changes that reduce shame and improve daily routines. She also helps people who feel isolated or overwhelmed by life changes to find stable coping habits and clearer priorities.
Communication problems and attachment concerns are common topics she works on, with an emphasis on practical ways to rebuild trust and improve everyday interactions. For relationship and LGBT concerns she aims to create a space where identity and values are recognized and used to guide treatment choices.
Clients can expect a therapist who listens, responds without judgment, and adjusts methods to fit needs. She frames progress as a series of manageable steps rather than quick fixes. That steady, down-to-earth style is meant to reduce pressure and make change feel achievable.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on clarifying personal values and taking concrete steps toward what matters most, which can help with parenting stress and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. It teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage mood, often using short exercises and behavior changes between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they will try methods and adjust based on what helps most, so the plan stays focused and realistic.
Online therapy makes those choices easier to keep up. Video calls let people meet face to face from different locations. Phone sessions are useful when video isn’t practical or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins, short exercises, and ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into a busy parenting schedule and help maintain momentum over time.
