Christianna Sullivan

Christianna Sullivan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois. She has seven years of documented professional experience and offers a compassionate, respectful approach to therapy. Christianna focuses on practical help for everyday problems and recognizes that starting therapy can feel hard.

Christianna listens first and builds an approach around each person's needs. She helps people deal with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes in ways that fit their life. She also supports people working through relationship tension, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, and workplace pressures.

Her work includes attention to trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. She also addresses blended family issues, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and the emotional concerns that come with midlife and questions of life purpose. Women facing specific stressors may find her focus areas relevant.

Christianna uses a client-centered stance that keeps the person's goals in view. She pairs that with solution-focused methods to set clear steps and mindfulness techniques to help manage difficult feelings. Conversations are tailored to each person's priorities rather than following a fixed script.

She encourages practical tools and small changes people can try between sessions. The tone in sessions is warm and direct, aimed at helping people notice what works and build on it. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule sessions.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experiences. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the person choose what to work on next. This approach is useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and navigating life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity. It can help with anxiety, stress, trauma reactions, and compassion fatigue by offering tools to steady attention in difficult moments.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps that move someone toward their goals. It emphasizes noticing what already works and building on it, which can be helpful for workplace issues, parenting challenges, and coping with day-to-day stress.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can shift over time as priorities change.

The practical advantage of online therapy is fitting sessions into a busy life. Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, avoid travel time, or join from a quieter spot, helping people stay consistent with their goals and practice new skills between meetings.
