About Christine
Christine O'Connor is an LCSW licensed in New Hampshire with 27 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, and related concerns such as depression and relationship strain. Christine works with adults navigating how patterns from their family of origin affect current life and relationships.
She sees people who are coping with changes like career shifts, caregiving stress, chronic illness, or the impact of ADHD. She also addresses intimacy-related problems, sleeping and eating difficulties, and the emotional effects of bereavement. LGBT concerns and issues around commitment and communication are included in her practice.
Christine’s approach begins with listening to each person's story and recognizing the strengths they already have. She uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build new habits and try different ways of relating. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps that can be practiced between meetings.
Her background includes long-term clinical work across a range of challenges tied to family history and attachment patterns. Over nearly three decades she has supported people working through abandonment issues, blended family stress, caregiver fatigue, and co-occurring medical or mental health concerns. Christine aims to help people reduce day-to-day distress and improve how they handle relationships and responsibilities.
People who choose her often want straightforward guidance on changing recurring patterns that come from the family they grew up in. She helps clients name those patterns, understand their effects, and try alternatives that feel manageable in everyday life.
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Many evidence-based approaches focus on changing patterns and building practical skills. One common method teaches concrete coping strategies and step-by-step behavior changes to reduce anxiety and manage stress. This approach is useful for people who want direct techniques they can practice between sessions.Another helpful approach looks at attachment and family of origin patterns. It helps people identify recurring roles and expectations learned in childhood and experiment with different ways of relating as adults. That work can address intimacy problems, communication difficulties, and feelings tied to abandonment or caregiving roles.
Finding the right fit is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which techniques to try first based on the client's goals, current concerns, and what feels practical. Adjustments are expected as work progresses and priorities change.
Confirm the session formats Christine offers before booking since the profile does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Some formats also allow people to choose quieter or lower-bandwidth options when that helps them participate more consistently.
