Christine Ryan is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with four decades of experience.

01About Christine

Christine Ryan is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with four decades of experience. She blends long practice experience with practical coaching methods to help people facing life changes, grief, relationship strain, anxiety, and career questions. Christine writes in a direct, calm way and keeps conversations focused on next steps.

She trained at Arizona State University and began practice in 1983. Early work in psychiatric hospital social work and community mental health shaped her direct style.

Background and approach

Over the years she has supported people through depression, parenting challenges, separation and divorce, and chronic illness. Christine also brings personal experience as a long-term cancer survivor and as a life coach. That combination makes her comfortable addressing health setbacks, caregiver stress, and big life transitions.

She uses simple, practical problem solving rather than jargon-heavy explanations. Her clinical approach centers on helping people clarify their situation, understand its impact, and decide on realistic next steps. Sessions tend to be collaborative, goal-oriented, and focused on actions that can improve daily life.

She draws on client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused methods. Christine works with people who want clear, down-to-earth help for emotional pain and practical life problems. She aims to be a steady, experienced partner while clients sort through grief, rebuild after loss, shift career direction, or reduce anxiety and stress.

Clients connect with her from Texas and beyond via phone or online formats. She frames therapy as a step-by-step process and often focuses first on what is happening now, then on what needs to change next.

04Online support

Practical approaches for online therapy and change

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. Christine uses this approach to build trust and to help people feel heard before planning next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact; it helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by identifying patterns and trying small changes in thinking and behavior. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on the 'what's next' question and often begins with small, concrete steps that lead to visible change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Christine collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means adjusting plans over time based on what helps most, not sticking rigidly to a single technique.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video works well for longer sessions and detailed conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging can support short updates, coaching-style check-ins, or step-by-step problem solving between calls. These options give flexibility for scheduling and help sustain momentum between sessions.
