About Christina
Christina Kayrouz is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Kentucky with ten years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma find clearer ways forward. Christina focuses on practical support and steady encouragement rather than labels or quick fixes.
She meets each person where they are and shapes sessions to fit individual needs. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at building skills for daily life.
Background and approach
Christina places emphasis on respect, sensitivity, and compassionate listening during sessions. Her work often focuses on coping with major life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, grief, and issues around identity and self worth. She also supports people dealing with addictions, body image struggles, attention challenges, and career stress.
These topics are addressed through structured tools and reflective conversation. Christina uses a mix of practical strategies and emotion-focused work to help people notice what matters to them and take steps toward it. Sessions can include skill practice, values clarification, and processing difficult memories or feelings.
The goal is to build momentum that carries into everyday routines. She offers sessions in English and is available to work with international clients. Christina encourages people to take small steps toward change and stays focused on what will make daily life easier and more manageable.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters most to them and take small, values-driven steps even when emotions are hard to sit with. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and finding direction after big life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build healthier habits, which can help with depression, anxiety, eating and sleeping problems, and impulsivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and pick or blend methods that fit. The process is collaborative and adjusts over time as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls are good for deeper conversation and face-to-face rapport. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for easier check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for shorter updates, skill practice between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, parenting, or travel while keeping a consistent care plan.
