Christina Medis, LMFT

Online Therapy Using Integrative and Parts-Based Approaches

Internal Family Systems is an approach that invites clients to notice and dialogue with different parts of themselves, helping to reduce internal conflict and clarify values; it is often useful for trauma, anxiety, self-esteem, and relationship patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaborative exploration so that clients can find their own solutions and build self-directed change; this is helpful for life transitions, emotional struggles, and relational concerns. Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to present-moment experience and teaches skills for managing stress, emotional reactivity, and persistent negative thinking.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in sessions, then tailor methods over time rather than prescribing a single technique from the start.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility for people juggling work, family, and other demands. Video calls enable face-to-face connection, phone sessions provide an accessible alternative, and live chat or text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and fit therapeutic work into a busy life while drawing on the same therapeutic principles as in-person treatment.
