About Christine

Christine Nazario is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with more than two decades of experience. She centers sessions on each person’s own story and strengths. She emphasizes respectful listening and steady support as people work toward clearer goals and better daily functioning.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client’s lead and build on what already works for them. She also draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when managing strong emotions and distress.

Christine helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and struggles with self-esteem. She also brings experience supporting people who are hearing impaired and offering hospice and end-of-life counseling. Sessions focus on concrete skills, problem solving, and pacing progress to match each person’s needs.

Her style is calm and direct. She encourages small, practical steps and checks in on what is most important to the person in front of her. She treats the client as the expert of their life and works collaboratively to set realistic goals.

Taking the first step can feel risky, and Christine aims to make that step easier. She helps people name what matters, try approaches that fit their life, and adjust plans when needed.

How Christine’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. In practice this means the therapist asks about priorities, reflects what she hears, and helps people set small, achievable goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches straightforward tools to shift them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christine will work with the client to try different techniques and decide which mix fits their needs and goals. She checks progress and adjusts plans so sessions stay useful and relevant.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. It can also let someone use fewer visual cues when bandwidth is limited or prefer spoken check-ins. Licensed professionals can adapt the same Client-Centered, CBT, and DBT techniques to remote sessions, focusing on practical skills and real-world problem solving.
