Christine Colucci, LMHC

Christine Colucci is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 19 years of experience. She combines a warm, interactive manner with practical tools to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship strains. Christine writes plainly and meets people where they are, guiding them toward clearer steps and realistic change.

She works from a client-centered view, which means conversations follow each person's priorities. Christine also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques and mindfulness practices when they fit the situation. Sessions tend to focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, building small behavior changes, and practicing calming skills.

Her background includes a master’s degree from Sage Graduate School and work in diverse mental health settings, including a nursing home social work department. That experience informs her comfort with aging, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and medical-related issues such as cancer and fertility challenges.

Christine helps people manage parenting pressures, blended family concerns, communication problems, and the fallout from trauma or domestic violence. She also supports those coping with career shifts, isolation, compassion fatigue, and changes that come with loss.

In sessions she aims to be respectful, sensitive, and straightforward. She encourages collaboration, letting clients set the pace while she offers guidance, tools, and honest feedback. Starting is a short process that begins with a simple matching questionnaire and scheduling step.

How CBT, Client-Centered and Mindfulness Work Online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions by breaking problems into small, manageable steps.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and collaboration. The therapist follows the client's priorities and supports them at their own pace while offering empathy and honest feedback.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and grounding skills to lower reactivity and reduce anxiety. Simple practices can help with grief, trauma aftereffects, and day-to-day stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will explore your needs, goals, and preferences and will collaborate with you to decide which methods to try. She adjusts the plan as you progress and checks in regularly to make sure the approach feels helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, a live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging is good for ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
