About Christina

Christina Burden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, depression, and coping with life changes. Christina also addresses social anxiety and related issues in her practice.

She uses practical strategies to help people manage mood and everyday stress. Sessions often include learning specific skills for emotional regulation and improving communication in relationships. Christina places emphasis on clear goal-setting and coping tools that can be used between meetings.

Christina draws on evidence-based methods to support clients working through grief, workplace stress, and life transitions. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care challenges, aging and geriatric issues, and caregiver stress. She addresses body image, chronic illness and pain, and neurodiversity including autism and Asperger Syndrome.

People who bring questions about commitment issues, codependency, control struggles, or the dynamics of blended families will find concrete steps to try. Christina also works with people exploring BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture and those coping with cancer or disaster-related stress. Her approach mixes practical therapy techniques with focused conversation about what is happening now.

Sessions are conducted in English from her Texas practice. Christina asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location.

How therapy approaches are used in online sessions

Christina uses evidence-based techniques to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; this helps with anxiety, mood, and social fears by offering concrete steps to try. Narrative approaches look at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships; this can help reframe painful patterns and make space for different choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. She checks in and adjusts techniques as needed so the work stays practical and focused on what the client wants to change.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around a busy day, allow a shorter check-in when time is limited, or remove the need to travel. These practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while they try new skills and approaches.
