About Christine
Christine Broadwater is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in North Carolina with 33 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people navigate relationship struggles, parenting concerns, grief, mood challenges, and anger. Christine emphasizes practical steps and steady support as people work toward clearer goals and better daily functioning.
Her approach begins by listening. She believes clients are the experts on their own story and that their strengths are the best foundation for change.
Background and approach
Sessions often start with identifying what matters most to the client and what small, doable steps will move them forward. Christine uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on client-centered methods to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space.
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are woven into work on intense emotions and stress. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to build motivation for change or improve daily routines.
These tools are used flexibly to fit each person’s goals. People who reach out can expect straightforward talk, practical strategies, and gentle challenges when needed. Christine helps people set realistic steps, practice new skills between sessions, and track progress over time.
Her style is steady, encouraging, and focused on what will help in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Christine blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people clarify goals, identify unhelpful thinking, and try new behaviors. Client-centered work focuses on listening, building on strengths, and shaping sessions around what matters most to the person. CBT gives practical tools to change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, anger, or relationship strain.She also uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. These skills are useful for managing intense feelings, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving how someone copes with stress. Together these approaches are shared collaboratively so the person and therapist can decide which tools fit best for current goals.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access. Video is good for full conversational work and practicing skills, phone can be simpler when video isn’t needed, live chat allows shorter focused check-ins, and messaging supports brief updates or skill practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while maintaining continuity of care.
