About Christinia
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama with 5 years of experience, Christinia McCollum helps people address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and depression. She works with adults who bring concerns about impulsivity, loneliness, self-harm, social anxiety, seasonal mood shifts, and issues related to veterans and the armed forces. Christinia writes that clients are the experts in their own stories and builds on existing strengths during sessions.
Her approach centers on practical conversation and collaborative problem solving. Sessions focus on identifying immediate difficulties, developing concrete coping steps, and noticing patterns that keep problems stuck. She is straightforward in discussing current struggles and in planning small, manageable changes between meetings.
Christinia aims to make the work clear and goal-oriented. She listens for what is causing distress now and helps people test different ways of responding. When trauma or loss is part of the picture, sessions proceed at a pace the person can manage.
She encourages people to notice strengths they already have and to use those skills in day-to-day life. Progress is tracked through short-term goals and regular check-ins about what is or isn’t working. The emphasis is on practical tools that can be used outside of sessions.
People looking to get started are asked to complete an initial matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches used and how online sessions fit
Christinia describes her work as evidence-based and focused on practical techniques. One commonly used approach is skills-based work that teaches coping strategies for anxiety, anger, and low mood. These sessions emphasize step-by-step exercises and behavioral changes that people can practice between meetings.Another frequent element is trauma-informed conversation that moves at a person’s pace. This involves careful review of how past events affect daily reactions and building small, tolerable ways to reduce distress over time. It can help when trauma, loss, or veteran-related stress is part of the concern.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and adjust methods as they go. That means trying techniques, checking how they worked, and shifting focus when necessary.
The biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the session options available before booking so you know what will be offered. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Therapists often use these advantages to keep momentum between appointments and to support consistent progress.
