About Christianne

Christianne Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 24 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting and family concerns, and challenges with self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, eating and sleeping problems, anger, career change, and ADHD.

Her way of working is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on naming emotions, spotting unhelpful patterns, and trying small changes that can ease daily life. Christianne often uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of her approaches to look at feelings and how they shape relationships and behavior.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based work, and client-centered practices. That mix is used to help people notice thoughts and reactions, try different responses, and develop clearer personal values. Sessions include practical exercises and short reflections to use between meetings.

Christianne has long experience with issues that often co-occur, such as chronic illness, caregiving stress, codependency, body image, and adoption or foster care concerns. She helps people address commitment and communication problems, as well as adjustment after major life changes.

Sessions are offered in English from Wisconsin. Cost varies with location and is handled through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Emotion-Focused and ACT work online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming core emotions and how those emotions affect behavior and relationships. It can help when feelings are hard to recognize or when patterns keep repeating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while clarifying what matters most and taking steps toward those values.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Christianne will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts the work as progress unfolds. Clients and therapist explore what feels useful and try different techniques when needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when helpful, and remove travel time. Therapists commonly adapt exercises, reflections, and behavioral experiments so they work well in remote sessions and can be practiced between meetings.
