About Christina
Christina Manolatos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, listening presence to people who feel stressed, overwhelmed, or stuck. Her approach begins with simple attention to what matters to you and why it feels hard right now.
Christina draws on client-centered and existential ideas to help people name feelings and make meaning from difficult moments. She uses mindfulness techniques and targeted conversations to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes.
Background and approach
Hypnotherapy is also part of her toolbox for people who are curious about guided imagery and focused relaxation. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Christina often asks about day-to-day routines, relationships, and sources of stress so the work can connect to real life.
She pays attention to grief, anger, self-esteem, addiction concerns, sleeping and eating problems, and parenting strain among other issues. Her background includes work in hospital and community settings, college support, and programs for people navigating unemployment or incarceration. That range shaped her comfort with diverse life circumstances and crisis situations.
Christina speaks English and Greek and practices from Wisconsin. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort - clients set the goals and she helps chart a path toward clearer choices and better coping.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what she hears, and helps you clarify goals and next steps. This approach is useful for stress, low self-esteem, parenting concerns, and relationship struggles.Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice, and the values that shape decisions. It can help when you feel stuck, empty, or uncertain about big life changes by inviting you to consider what matters and what direction you want to take.
Christina also uses hypnotherapy for people who want guided relaxation and imagery to reduce anxiety or change habits. Hypnotherapy in sessions is collaborative and paced to your comfort level.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options with you and together decide what fits your needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying a method and adjusting it if it does not feel helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching mindfulness practices. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options create flexibility so therapy can fit into parenting schedules and everyday life.
