About Christina

Christina Garry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, mood concerns, and challenges like sleep problems and low self-esteem. Christina also supports those dealing with caregiver stress and aging and geriatric issues. Her tone is respectful and practical, and she centers the person in the work.

Christina draws from Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. She listens first, then helps people set clear, manageable goals. Sessions focus on steps you can try between meetings and on testing what actually helps in daily life.

Her style is collaborative. Christina follows each person’s lead and tailors sessions to the issues at hand. That means some meetings focus on thinking and behavior patterns, and others on exploring values and priorities.

Christina has two decades of experience working with a wide range of concerns from trauma and anger to career questions and compassion fatigue. She emphasizes practical tools that address immediate problems while also attending to longer term change.

People who work with her can expect clear discussion of goals, suggestions to try between sessions, and regular check-ins about progress. If you want help sorting priorities, coping with life changes, or managing mood and stress, she offers steady, person-centered support.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the client's priorities. In practice that means the therapist focuses on understanding your concerns and helping you name your goals so work is guided by what matters most to you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns in thoughts and behaviors and introduces specific strategies to change unhelpful habits. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with you and together you will decide which methods and exercises fit your needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as goals shift.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options when you book. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use written tools and worksheets between meetings to practice skills. Ask about the specific session types offered before you schedule so you can choose what works best for your routine.
