About Christina
Christina Kodjiku is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma, anger, sleep problems, and other life changes. Christina also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career questions, ADHD, and issues related to identity and culture.
She uses straightforward, client-centered work. Sessions focus on practical steps and problem solving. She draws on cognitive behavioral methods and motivational interviewing to help people change unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness tools are woven into the work when they fit the person's goals.
Christina has broad experience with substance-use concerns and readjustment issues. Her background includes work with veterans and people who have experienced homelessness, and she has addressed caregiver stress and blended family challenges. That history shapes how she notices practical barriers and daily stresses that get in the way of emotional goals.
In sessions she emphasizes how thoughts, emotions, and actions connect. That helps people who struggle with anger, low mood, or chronic worry see concrete steps to try between meetings. She also offers coaching-style guidance for career and life-purpose questions.
Her style is collaborative and direct. Christina will help people choose skills and experiments to test in real life. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking actions that match what matters most. It can help with persistent anger or avoidance by shifting attention toward meaningful choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and uses practical experiments to change them. That approach is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and anger-related reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense. She tests tools in session and adjusts based on what the person reports about daily life and progress.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow quick check-ins between appointments.
