About Christina
Christina Janiszeski is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience. She practices in Minnesota and works with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and codependency among other issues. Christina also supports people dealing with grief, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and major life changes.
She uses counseling methods that focus on the person in front of her. Sessions emphasize clear goals, practical steps, and honest conversation. Christina draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and build on what the client already knows about themselves. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going.
Christina often incorporates mindfulness techniques to help people notice and regulate strong feelings. Motivational Interviewing appears when people are weighing change or recovery options, particularly around substance use and addictive behaviors. Existential ideas are used to help people explore meaning, choices, and values when life feels uncertain.
In sessions clients can expect straightforward talk, planning, and skill-building. Christina aims to help people set boundaries, manage stress, and cope with grief or loss. She also supports those working through family of origin issues, commitment concerns, body image, and chronic illness challenges.
Her practice balances practical problem solving with space to reflect on deeper questions. Clients who want focused, goal-oriented work combined with attention to personal values may find this approach useful.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and building on what the client brings to sessions. It helps people clarify values, make choices, and feel understood without judgment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood or behavior patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will discuss goals and preferences and will try approaches that match what the client wants to achieve. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that combines skill building, reflective conversation, and behavioral steps.
Session format details are not listed here, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, for example by saving travel time, allowing a shorter check-in on a break, or reducing the need to be on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods to remote sessions while keeping the focus on clear goals, practical strategies, and ongoing review of what is helping.
