About Christina
Christina Willis is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) practicing in Oklahoma with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing depression, addiction, grief, stress, anxiety, and life changes. Her focus includes family-related concerns, coping skills, and the emotional fallout of difficult decisions or relationships.
Christina uses straightforward, evidence-based methods to help people untangle painful feelings. She draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to each person. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and develop different responses.
Her practice pays attention to issues that often sit under the surface, such as guilt and shame, codependency, attachment worries, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She talks with clients about how these feelings affect daily life and relationships, and finds small, practical ways to shift patterns.
Christina also brings motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques into sessions. These approaches aim to clarify goals, strengthen motivation for change, and build concrete steps forward. Sessions often involve setting short-term objectives and testing new behaviors between meetings.
Clients can expect grounded, goal-oriented conversations that weigh options and practical next steps. Christina works with the ups and downs people carry after hard choices, losses, or turning points. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to get started.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s priorities first. The therapist listens for what the client cares about and helps them name goals and next steps. This approach is useful when someone wants to better understand their feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, guilt, and patterns that keep problems going.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then suggest methods that fit. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs shift over time.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins between other obligations. Some formats may work better for brief coaching-style conversations while others allow more interactive therapeutic work; discuss practical preferences during the first meeting.
