About Christina Ashby
Christina incorporates a client’s spiritual beliefs into therapy when they are important to the client, aiming to address concerns in a holistic way. She recognizes that growth can be messy and that people are complex, and she approaches the process with patience and a commitment to walk alongside clients through the ups and downs of change.
Christina is based in Texas, and sessions need to take place while the client is in Texas. For sessions, she asks that clients be alone in the room, and if someone needs to join, that participation is handled through the appropriate informed consent process. To start well, she requests helpful background information such as family situation, any mental health diagnoses and medications, current supports, trauma history, relevant medical concerns, developmental history, substance use or addiction concerns, strengths and limitations, and a clearer picture of the main issue bringing the client to therapy.

Therapy Tools That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Christina Ashby draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be practiced in everyday life between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then building more workable alternatives. It is often used when stress, anxiety, depression, or self-esteem concerns are getting in the way of daily functioning.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and navigating relationships more effectively. It can be especially helpful for clients who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions, conflict, or impulsive reactions and want structured tools to respond differently.
Mindfulness Therapy supports learning how to pay attention to the present moment with less judgment, which can help clients relate differently to worry, self-criticism, and ongoing stress. It often pairs well with skills-building work by creating more space to choose how to respond.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina collaborates with clients to understand what they are facing, what matters most to them, and which strategies fit their goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy unfolds.
Online therapy adds flexibility and access, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of formats can make it easier to stay consistent, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and get support in a way that feels comfortable and sustainable.
