About Christine
Christine O'Connor is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in New Hampshire with 27 years of professional experience. She helps people who are managing stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, dealing with trauma and abuse, and working through grief and loss. She also supports people with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, sleep or eating difficulties, and career or life changes.
Christine works from the view that people know their own story and already have strengths to draw on. In sessions she listens for what matters most and helps people build on those strengths. Conversations are practical and focused on what someone can do next to feel steadier at home and in daily life.
Her background includes long-term clinical practice in New Hampshire settings. Over nearly three decades she has seen many kinds of stress reactions and life transitions. That experience informs how she notices patterns and suggests steps that fit day-to-day routines.
Christine aims to make sessions straightforward. She will talk through coping options, ways to manage intense emotions, and practical approaches to reduce conflict at home. She encourages incremental changes and checks in on what is and isn’t working.
People who contact her complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Christine accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Confirm current session options before booking so arrangements match your needs.
How sessions work
Practical approaches and working online
Christine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear strategies. One approach is brief skills work that teaches ways to manage intense emotions and reduce immediate stress. This can help with panic, daily anxiety, and quick coping tools for parenting challenges. Another approach is trauma-informed support that helps people make sense of past hurt and lessen how strongly it affects daily life. That work often includes grounding and paced steps to address difficult memories.Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative work. She will discuss options with each person, try approaches that fit current goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. The emphasis is on practical steps that fit into home life and daily routines rather than on strict theory alone.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people connect from different locations, which can help someone balance appointments with work, caregiving, or other commitments.
