About Christine

Christine O'Connor is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Hampshire with 27 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and other life changes. She works with individuals who are navigating career stress, parenting strains, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD, and caring roles.

She starts by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. Christine treats clients as the experts on their own stories and looks for strengths that can be used to move through problems. Conversations are direct and practical, focused on what is happening now and what small steps might help.

Her approach uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address thinking patterns, behaviors, and emotional responses. Christine helps people notice triggers for anger and frustration, practice alternative responses, and build routines that reduce stress. Sessions often include talking through situations, practicing skills, and planning for real-life moments.

With long experience across many concerns, she draws on a range of interventions rather than a single method. That flexibility helps when problems overlap, such as anxiety with sleep disruption or grief with relationship strain. The emphasis is on usable strategies that fit into a person's daily life.

Christine offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. To start, a short matching questionnaire helps clarify priorities before scheduling a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions operate on a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Christine uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical skills and changing patterns. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try alternative ways of thinking and reacting; this can reduce anxiety and make anger responses easier to manage. Another approach focuses on behavior and skills practice, teaching concrete strategies for pacing reactions, grounding during strong emotions, and building routines that lower overall stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Christine will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and daily life. She frames therapy as a process of testing what helps and adjusting as needed rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and keeping appointments without travel. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to maintain regular check-ins, practice skills between meetings, and use shorter or longer sessions when life requires flexibility.
