Christine Jeffries, LPC

Christine Jeffries, LPC, helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, and depression. She works with adults who need practical coping strategies and clear steps to feel more like themselves again. Her style is direct and supportive, focused on making everyday life more manageable.

Christine uses straightforward conversations and concrete tools in sessions. She helps people spot patterns that make problems worse and practices new ways of handling stress and strong emotions. Sessions often focus on short-term coping skills alongside deeper work on past hurts and attachment concerns.

With 16 years of experience, she draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape treatment to each person. That background includes supporting people through abandonment issues, adoption and foster care challenges, aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and adjustment after loss.

Christine also addresses communication problems, codependency, commitment fears, control issues, and the effects of trauma or disaster. She supports people affected by autism spectrum issues and Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder when those concerns are part of adult treatment.

People who choose Christine will find a practical approach. She focuses on what can be done between sessions as well as during them. The goal is clearer coping, better day-to-day functioning, and a plan to move forward.

How evidence-based techniques work in online care

Many of the approaches Christine uses focus on practical skills people can apply right away. One common evidence-based technique teaches specific coping skills for managing mood swings, low mood, and strong emotions. It emphasizes breaking problems into small steps and practicing new responses.

Another frequent approach addresses patterns that come from attachment and past hurts. This work helps people notice repeating reactions and try different ways of relating to others and themselves. It can be useful for relationship strain, abandonment concerns, and grief.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through needs, goals, and preferences and suggest techniques that fit the person. Together they review what is working and adjust the plan as needed.

If you are exploring online options, confirm which session formats Christine currently offers before booking. Ask whether sessions are scheduled as video or audio meetings, or handled another way. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and help people keep regular appointments during times of illness or caregiving demands.
