About Christine

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee and New Jersey with 10 years of experience. Christine Toler works with adults and teens on stress, anxiety, depression, family concerns, trauma and parenting issues. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her practice.

Christine introduces herself as someone who first experienced the benefit of therapy as a child. She continued that work into adulthood and later trained to become a counselor. She holds an Education Specialist degree (Ed.S) and is an LPC with practice in Tennessee and New Jersey.

Her approach centers on defining a problem clearly and then taking deliberate steps to change it. She favors solution-focused work and non-judgmental cognitive techniques. Sessions often include practical strategies to manage symptoms and small behavior changes that add up over time.

Christine also draws on mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and bodily responses without getting overwhelmed. For people with a history of trauma, Trauma-Focused Therapy is used to address how past events keep affecting current life. She combines these methods to suit the person in front of her.

She has worked with clients dealing with grief, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar concerns, compassion fatigue, attachment and abandonment issues, relationship communication problems, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Christine describes herself as someone who continues to learn and who has personal experience of being in the client role.

For parents or young adults facing life transitions, her work aims to clarify next steps and practice new behaviors. Prospective clients are invited to confirm current session options before booking and to use the site's intake steps to schedule an initial meeting.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Christine uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-world experiments. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and patterns that get in the way of daily functioning.

She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy, which teaches simple attention and breathing practices. These exercises help reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.

When past events continue to affect present life, she may use Trauma-Focused Therapy to gently address how memories and reminders trigger current problems. That work aims to reduce the hold those memories have on mood and behavior.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Christine will talk with each person about goals and preferences and recommend which methods to start with. The plan can change as progress is made and new needs appear.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the options available before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can also adapt exercises for camera or phone sessions and suggest brief at-home practices to reinforce what is covered in meetings.
