About Christina

Christina Manolatos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience based in Wisconsin. She works with adults on common concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma and addiction. Christina also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, family of origin problems, codependency, and caregiver stress.

Her practice style is straightforward and conversational. She listens first, then helps people name their thoughts and feelings. Sessions often begin by identifying what feels most urgent and what a person hopes to change.

Christina draws on client-centered and existential ideas to keep the focus on what matters to each person. She also uses mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing to support behavior change. Hypnotherapy is another option she offers where appropriate.

Her background includes work in mental health hospital settings, college counseling, services for the unemployed, and work in correctional environments. That variety has informed how she notices stress responses and coping patterns in everyday life.

Christina speaks English and Greek. She works with people who want clearer boundaries, better communication, or relief from feeling overwhelmed by others. To begin, she asks straightforward questions and helps people set small, practical goals for change.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Christina uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person's concerns and priorities. That approach means sessions center on listening, reflecting, and helping people name what feels hard right now. It is useful for anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and feeling stuck.

She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity. Mindfulness can help with stress, sleep problems, and managing urges related to addiction. Motivational interviewing is used to support small behavior changes by exploring ambivalence and building on a person's own reasons to change.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Christina will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those goals. She checks in and adjusts the plan over time so the work stays practical and relevant.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is tight, or avoid commuting on a workday. These practical benefits help people keep regular contact with a licensed professional while they work on boundaries, codependency patterns, or managing stress.
