Christine DeHart is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and self esteem struggles. She brings 15 years of professional experience and aims to meet clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She works with people from LGBT communities and those living alternative lifestyles, as well as individuals connected to the military.
Her approach is flexible and tailored to each person. Christine uses methods drawn from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, and emotionally focused work. She shapes conversations and plans around what a person needs right now instead of applying a fixed script.
Christine emphasizes practical steps and emotional understanding. Sessions may include learning specific coping skills, tracking thoughts and behaviors, and improving communication in important relationships. She also supports people facing life changes, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and end-of-life concerns.
Her background includes independent practice work in Indiana and licensure in both Indiana and Arizona as an LCSW, which is short for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She also notes experience with military-related issues and with clients who choose nontraditional spiritual paths.
Christine describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client sets goals and the work is shaped around those goals. She offers guidance, coaching, and support aimed at greater coping, clearer choices, and stronger self regard.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on understanding how early and important relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in how they connect, calm strong emotions, and practice new ways of relating in daily life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In virtual sessions clients often learn simple exercises to change unhelpful thought patterns, test beliefs, and try new behaviors between meetings.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and share deeper feelings and draw closer in important relationships. Over video or phone, this approach can guide clearer emotional expression and rehearsal of different responses to relationship stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow follow-up or skill practice between meetings. It also lets people use quieter surroundings, choose whether to be on camera, or pick a shorter check-in when that fits their schedule.
