About Christianne

Christianne Griffin is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, and issues common in young adulthood like career questions and identity concerns.

She meets people who are managing life changes such as starting a new job, moving away from home, or ending a relationship. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Christianne uses conversational techniques to help people identify patterns, try new coping strategies, and make steady changes.

Her background includes long-term work with mood disorders, attachment issues, and trauma and abuse. She blends methods that ask clients to notice thoughts and feelings, practice new behaviors, and strengthen emotional connections with others. That mix helps with anxiety, low self-esteem, sleep problems, and difficulty managing strong emotions.

Christianne also supports people dealing with family and parenting stress, caregiving burdens, chronic health challenges, and adoption or foster care histories. She will help sort priorities, set realistic goals, and find strategies that fit day-to-day life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) asks people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings and to focus on actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and making clearer choices about work and relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and tries small behavior experiments to reduce unhelpful habits and ease symptoms like panic, rumination, or sleep disruption. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and can be useful for relationship strain, trust issues, and attachment concerns.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative testing makes it easier to find ways of working that feel practical and relevant to daily life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make sessions fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep continuity when schedules shift. Licensed professionals can use the therapeutic methods above in virtual sessions to practice skills, process emotions, and set realistic goals without promising a particular format.
