About Christina

Christina Davila is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults and adolescents on stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, self-esteem, motivation, and related concerns. Her practice also addresses grief, relationship and intimacy issues, mood disorders, ADHD, and trauma and abuse.

Christina centers sessions on what the person brings to the room. She treats clients as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on concrete skills and practical steps that people can use between meetings.

Her approach draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Those methods are used to help with managing difficult feelings, changing unhelpful behavior patterns, and increasing motivation for change.

Christina has worked with people facing addiction, coping with natural or human-caused disasters, first responder and veteran issues, immigration-related stress, and multicultural concerns. She also supports people dealing with divorce and separation, parenting strain, and co-occurring conditions.

In sessions she uses plain language and short-term tools alongside longer-term coping strategies. She helps clients identify small, achievable steps and practices to try between appointments. The focus is on workable changes rather than labels or promises.

How therapy approaches fit into online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they can notice their own solutions. It is useful for building self-awareness and confidence when social situations feel overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques for managing anxiety, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and testing new behaviors in everyday settings.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help when anger, impulsivity, or relationship strain makes social interactions harder.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She can introduce different methods and adjust the focus as sessions progress.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time, and let people use video or phone options if sitting on camera is difficult. Licensed professionals can help adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so progress continues between meetings.
