About Christina Ashby

Christina Ashby is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a therapist credential that indicates advanced clinical training and state licensure to provide mental health counseling. With 12 years of experience, she has spent much of her adult life supporting individuals, couples, and families, with a focus on meeting people where they are and helping them recognize their strengths as they work toward meaningful change.

Her style centers on empowerment, encouraging clients to take an active role in understanding their patterns, building skills, and developing a life that feels more grounded and intentional. When clients want this included, Christina also incorporates spiritual beliefs into therapy to support a holistic view of each person’s needs and values.

Because she is based in Texas, clients need to be physically located in Texas for sessions. She also encourages clients to set up sessions with the scheduling tools available and to begin therapy by sharing helpful background information, such as family situation, current supports, relevant history, and the main concerns they would like to address. Christina approaches the work with the understanding that growth can feel messy at times, and she aims to stay alongside clients throughout the process.

Practical tools and relationship insights in online therapy

Christina Ashby draws from evidence-informed approaches that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and experimenting with new, more workable ways of thinking and responding. It is often used to support concerns like stress, anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem challenges.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and building steadier relationships. It can be especially helpful when feelings become intense or when it is hard to stay grounded during conflict, transitions, or overwhelm.

For clients focused on connection and communication, the Gottman Method offers structured ways to understand relationship dynamics, strengthen friendship, and practice healthier conflict habits in a step-by-step format.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christina collaborates with clients to clarify goals, identify what is most pressing, and choose strategies that fit their preferences, values, and day-to-day realities.

Online therapy also adds flexibility. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, or use live chat and text-based messaging for added convenience between sessions, making support more accessible within a busy schedule.
