About Christina
Christina Mayhaus is an LPC, Licensed Professional Counselor, and an LMHC, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, with 16 years of experience. She works with adults and young adults on anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and related concerns such as self-esteem and issues tied to family of origin. Her background includes work across youth and adult settings in the Cincinnati area and formal graduate training in counseling.
Christina adapts how she works to each person she sees. She fits the therapy to the person rather than asking the person to fit a single method. That means sessions can include talking through what led to current feelings, practical skills for managing stress, and checking how goals are progressing.
She has helped people navigate life transitions, relationship and communication problems, and questions tied to sexual orientation and identity. Christina lists trauma and abuse, post-traumatic stress, and guilt and shame among areas she addresses, and she also supports people working on self-love and young adult issues.
Her training and years in the field inform a mix of evidence-based techniques. In practice she focuses on clear goals and steady progress rather than jargon. Sessions center on honest conversation and steps that someone can try between meetings.
Christina holds licenses across several states and practices from Ohio. She offers sessions in English. Before booking, clients should confirm the current session options and formats available.
Therapeutic methods and how they translate to online work
Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to make thinking and behavior more manageable. One common approach focuses on practical skills to reduce anxiety and stress by identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing alternative responses. This helps people who feel overwhelmed by worry or persistent negative thinking.She also works with trauma-informed methods that help people process difficult memories and reduce their ongoing impact. These approaches often pair careful discussion of past events with exercises to rebuild a sense of safety and stability in day-to-day life.
Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let someone choose a quieter setting and avoid camera use when that helps them focus on the work.
