About Christine
Christine Broadwater is an LCMHC licensed in North Carolina with 33 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing relationship issues, family conflict, parenting challenges, motivation and self-esteem concerns, and trauma. She also helps with stress, anxiety, mood disorders, grief, and issues common in young adulthood.
Christine uses straightforward conversation and practical techniques. She treats clients as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on clear goals, everyday coping skills, and small changes that matter in daily life.
Her background includes long-term clinical work across community and outpatient settings. That experience informs a flexible, person-focused style that mixes supportive listening with active problem-solving. She draws from Client-Centered Therapy, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to match methods to the client's needs.
In sessions she helps people organize overwhelming feelings, manage stress, and make decisions about relationships and parenting. She also addresses issues linked to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, postpartum depression, and multicultural concerns when they are part of a client's story.
People who are navigating life changes after school, starting work, or moving away from home may find her approach practical and direct. To begin, a prospective client uses the site matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the online options button.
Approaches used and how online work fits
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and helping people name their goals. It supports self-directed change and works well for relationship and life-transition concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and emotions connect. It teaches practical skills for anxiety, depression, and stress, such as changing unhelpful thought patterns and building new routines.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete coping tools for strong emotions and relationship problems. It includes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will talk with each person about what they want to work on and try methods that match those goals. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and reducing commute time. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, since options are not listed here. Many people find online work easier to attend around school or work commitments, or for shorter, focused check-ins. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to make sessions concrete and useful for everyday life.
