About Christine
Christine DeHart is an LCSW licensed in Arizona and Indiana with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, LGBT concerns, addictions, parenting strain, and a wide range of life changes. She also works with people facing issues like chronic illness, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to military service.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical strategies, and exploring what matters most in daily life. She combines techniques from attachment work, cognitive behavioral methods, and emotion-focused work to address patterns that keep people stuck.
Christine often uses client-centered and dialectical strategies to help someone notice how thoughts, feelings, and behavior interact. That can mean learning new ways to talk about needs, practicing emotion regulation skills, or testing small changes between sessions. She aims to help clients build tools they can use outside of session.
She has experience with people who identify with alternative lifestyles and those involved in earth-based spiritual practices. She also notes training and work with military-connected clients and people facing end-of-life or caregiver concerns.
Christine has worked in private practice settings for many years and maintains a practice in the Indianapolis area. Sessions are offered in English. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session options and scheduling details.
How sessions work
How Christine’s approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people relate now. In sessions this can mean mapping patterns of closeness and distance and practicing new ways to express needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts and behaviors influence feelings; it often uses short exercises and homework to test new responses between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and name emotional experience and then try different ways of responding that change relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christine will discuss what seems most useful based on the issues you bring and your goals. She works with clients to pick methods and steps that feel manageable and practical, and she adjusts plans as needs change.
The practical benefits of online sessions are about fitting therapy into everyday life. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments around work, caregiving, or medical needs. It may also allow for shorter check-ins when a quick strategy review helps, or for longer sessions when a deeper conversation is needed. Confirm the current session options and formats before booking so you know how sessions will be held.
