About Christine
Christine Broadwater is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 33 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and motivation issues. Christine also addresses stress, anxiety, grief, anger, mood concerns, and questions around sexual orientation and identity.
She starts by treating each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions focus on practical strengths the person already has and on clear, manageable steps forward. Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented rather than theoretical.
Christine uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on client-centered work to center the person’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps break unhelpful thinking patterns and build different habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices are used for managing strong emotions and improving tolerance for stress.
She also brings motivational interviewing when people feel stuck or unsure about change. That method helps identify personal reasons to make shifts and keeps the work realistic. Christine’s combination of methods aims to be useful for everyday problems like snapping at loved ones, resentment at work, or feeling overwhelmed by life changes.
If you want to begin, Christine asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How Christine’s approaches shape online sessions
Christine uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in what matters to the client. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and letting the person set priorities, which helps when sorting relationship strain or parenting stress.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. CBT gives concrete exercises and small experiments clients can try between sessions to reduce reactive anger or anxious thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness techniques are included when stronger emotion regulation is needed; these teach breathing, grounding, and step-by-step ways to ride out intense feelings without acting on them.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christine collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their goals and daily life. She mixes approaches as needed and adjusts the plan based on what the client finds helpful.
