About Christine
Christine Goodstein is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, and self-esteem struggles. Christine writes and talks plainly and focuses on practical steps that help with day-to-day challenges.
She views each person as the expert on their own story and builds on existing strengths. In sessions she helps clients name what is getting in the way, try new ways of coping, and set small, doable goals. Her background includes work in healthcare settings, group homes, schools, and the prison system.
Christine has experience helping a wide age range, from children to older adults, with issues such as attachment concerns, abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, chronic illness or pain, and mood disorders. She also addresses communication problems, impulsivity, life purpose, and money and financial issues when those topics come up in therapy.
She emphasizes courage and practical support. That means focusing on what someone can do between sessions and checking progress regularly. Christine aims to make therapy feel like a partnership rather than a lecture.
People who choose her often want straightforward, strength-based help with emotional pain and life's practical hurdles. She practices in Delaware and offers services in English.
Approach choices and how online therapy can fit
Christine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach helps people build coping skills for anxiety and stress by teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior-based strategies that reduce overwhelm and increase daily functioning. Another approach centers on processing trauma and painful memories at a manageable pace, helping people reduce symptoms and regain more control over reactions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks progress and adjusts the plan as therapy moves forward so the approach stays useful and relevant. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or make it simpler to keep appointments during moves or schedule changes. Because the exact session formats are not specified here, confirm current session options before booking to know what is available. Licensed professionals can tailor timing and pacing to help apply new skills between meetings and to address concerns such as stress, relationships, mood, and money and financial issues in ways that work with everyday routines.Areas of focus
