About Christina
Christina Janiszeski is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage strong emotions and life changes. She focuses on practical steps to reduce overwhelm and rebuild day-to-day functioning. Christina writes plainly and listens first to understand each person's story.
She brings ten years of counseling experience and uses methods that center the client’s needs. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep problems going and introduce small, doable changes. For someone dealing with anger, grief, anxiety, or depression, she works to make emotions easier to name and handle.
Background and approach
Her approach blends client-centered care with cognitive-behavioral tools and mindfulness practices. That means conversations that respect where a person is now, paired with exercises to shift thinking and calm the nervous system. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find personal reasons to try new behaviors.
Christina pays attention to the whole situation, including stress at work, family background, and issues like addiction or chronic illness. She helps people sort through relationship and career concerns and cope with big life transitions. Her goal is to build practical skills that fit a person’s daily life.
People who want a direct, steady counselor will find her straightforward and supportive. She offers flexible session formats to fit different routines. Christina works from Minnesota and conducts therapy in English.

How Christina's Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience without judgment. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client's lead, asks clarifying questions, and helps make sense of what matters most right now.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Online CBT often includes structured conversations and short exercises to try between sessions, which can help with anger, anxiety, depression, and unhelpful behavior patterns.
Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It uses reflective questions and gentle encouragement to build motivation, which can be useful when someone feels stuck or has a history of substance use.
Figuring out the right mix of approaches is part of the early work in therapy. Christina will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, values, and what they want to achieve. That partnership may shift over time as needs change.
Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexible scheduling and fewer travel demands. Video calls let people keep visual connection when that helps. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy routines and to follow through on steps discussed in sessions.
