Christine Colucci, LMHC

Christine Colucci is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 19 years of experience. She trained at Sage Graduate School and has worked across mental health settings, including time in a nursing home social work department. She brings a calm, respectful manner to sessions and focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

Her work is client-centered. That means she listens first and follows each person’s pace. Sessions tend to be warm and interactive, with gentle guidance and straightforward tools to cope with life changes, grief, low self-esteem, and parenting stresses.

Christine uses practical methods from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness alongside client-centered work. She aims to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and build everyday skills for managing emotions and reactions. This can include steps for handling social anxiety, anger, or compassion fatigue.

She also brings experience supporting people facing aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, end-of-life and hospice concerns, and medical challenges such as cancer and fertility struggles. That background includes work in long-term care settings and with caregivers who are balancing care and burnout.

Sessions are delivered in English and are based in New York. Christine emphasizes collaboration: she works with each person to set goals, adjust the pace, and check progress along the way.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead, helping people set goals and move at a comfortable pace. It works well for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and managing life transitions because the therapist adapts to the person’s needs.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear skills and small experiments to break unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and social fears.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and increase present-moment awareness. It is often useful for managing worry, compassion fatigue, and coping with chronic health challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans together based on what helps. That decision is based on personal needs and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use techniques from CBT and mindfulness effectively in remote sessions to help people practice skills between meetings.
