Christine O'Neill, LPC, LCPC

Christine O'Neill, LPC, LCPC helps people facing stress, anxiety, mood shifts, addictions, and midlife transitions. She uses a warm, direct style that mixes conversation with practical tasks. Her approach often includes short homework between sessions to test new habits and perspectives. Humor appears regularly as a way to relieve tension and bring perspective to hard topics.

With 18 years of experience, she has supported people dealing with depression, bipolar concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and career or parenting strain. She often frames work like coaching - setting clear goals and small steps to make change feel possible. Clients can expect interactive sessions that focus on real-life problems and measurable progress.

Her methods include client-centered work that prioritizes the person's experience, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking, and dialectical behavior strategies for managing strong emotions. She also draws on existential questions and motivational interviewing to clarify values and increase readiness for change. These tools are used alongside practical tasks to build new routines.

Christine favors messaging and live messaging as ways for some clients to think through responses and absorb feedback. If messaging is not a fit, she tailors the communication style to the person's needs. She works with adults on a wide range of concerns and aims for collaboration and clear next steps.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How Christine's Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens closely and helps people find their own solutions, which can be useful for stress, relationship concerns, and midlife decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build healthier behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That choice can change over time as goals evolve.

Many people find online sessions easier to fit into daily life. Messaging and live messaging were noted as preferred ways Christine sometimes uses, since they give extra time to think and respond. If messaging does not match a person's style, confirm available session options before booking so arrangements fit routines and technical needs. Online work can make it simpler to check in between appointments, keep practice tasks going, and slot therapy into a busy week without long travel.
