About Christine

Christine O'Neill is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) practicing in Colorado with 18 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship troubles, anger, grief, mood disorders, and other life changes. She also supports concerns around ADHD, self-esteem, sleep and eating issues, parenting strain, career questions, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach leans toward coaching and goal-oriented work. She often gives short tasks between sessions so people can practice new habits. Humor shows up in sessions as a way to reduce tension and look at difficult situations more plainly. Sessions are interactive and focused on practical steps rather than long theory talks.

Christine uses client-centered methods alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to address thought patterns and coping skills. She also draws on motivational interviewing and existential ideas when people need to examine values and life direction. Trauma-focused methods are part of her toolbox for those who have experienced abuse or loss.

She has worked across a wide range of concerns including mood disorders, addictions, divorce, and caregiving stress. That background gives her experience helping people sort priorities, set achievable goals, and try out new ways of responding to anger and frustration. Christine offers services in English and accepts international clients.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the person brings, helping them feel heard and steering sessions by their goals. It suits people who want a collaborative, person-focused way to sort out anger and relationship issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replaces them with practical alternatives. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, anger responses, and sleep or eating problems because it targets specific thoughts and actions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for regulating emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be useful when someone needs concrete tools to manage intense emotions or recurring conflict.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals and everyday life. That choice may shift as progress is made and new priorities appear.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography did not list explicit formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, allow short check-ins when needed, or let someone avoid being on camera if they prefer less visual focus. These practical benefits help therapy fit into a busy life without promising a particular service.
