Christina Stuckey, LCSW

Christina Stuckey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps so conversations feel clear and useful for everyday life.

Christina uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. She also uses client-centered listening to make space for what matters most to the person in the room.

Her background includes a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Purdue University and a Master of Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. Over the past 10 years she has worked in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and virtual settings. That variety gave her experience with both short-term goals and longer conversations about change.

In sessions she helps people set clear goals and notice small changes that add up. She invites feedback and adjusts plans when something isn’t working. Clients can expect a straightforward style that mixes practical skill-building with time to talk through feelings.

Christina also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, caregiving stress, relationship and family problems, sleep and eating concerns, and career questions. She works in English and provides therapy remotely for people located in Indiana. Her approach is collaborative and focused on usable tools for daily life.

How Christina’s approaches work online

Christina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT often involves setting small experiments, tracking patterns, and learning clear skills to reduce anxiety, panic, or low mood.

She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which means she listens carefully and follows the person's priorities. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort out feelings and decide next steps. Christina may combine mindfulness techniques to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve sleep.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina treats therapy as a collaboration and will discuss options based on a person's goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods as needed so sessions stay relevant and practical.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be useful when a quieter connection or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different lifestyles.
