About Christine
Christine Hamby greets people with calm energy and straightforward care. She is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Oklahoma with three years of practice. Christine focuses on making therapy practical and understandable for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, parenting demands, or life changes.
She uses clear, direct conversation to help people name what is hard and try small changes that make a difference. Sessions are aimed at skills you can use between meetings - breathing and grounding, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and choosing actions that match your values.
Background and approach
Christine also addresses issues like compassion fatigue and mood challenges that wear people down over time. Her work draws on approaches that look at thoughts, behavior, and relationships. She helps people struggling with attachment and abandonment concerns find steadier ways to relate to themselves and others.
She also supports those facing grief, hospice and end-of-life strain, or the practical stresses of caregiving. Christine is comfortable talking about sexuality, non-monogamous relationships, guilt and shame, and challenges with impulse control. She pays attention to how isolation or social anxiety can shape daily life, and she helps people build small routines that reduce overwhelm.
Sessions are offered in English and take place through online formats. Christine aims to meet people where they are and work together on goals that feel useful and realistic.
Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that matter to them. It teaches simple exercises to reduce avoidance and move toward chosen values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions; it helps people build steadier ways of relating to themselves and others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers practical steps to change patterns that cause distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Christine will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can shift as you learn what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers different ways to stay connected. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a check-in without being on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when a shorter, flexible option fits a busy day. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family responsibilities, or caregiving duties.
