About Christine

Dr. Christine Wilcox draws on a client-centered, skills-based approach that emphasizes practical strategies for navigating change and improving daily functioning.

Background and approach

With 27 years of practice, she combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment principles to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, grief, trauma, and a wide range of life transitions including career shifts and relationship challenges. Her work integrates education, modeling, and specific change-oriented tools to promote healthier coping and clearer boundaries.

Licensed in Colorado and Ohio as an LCSW and LISW, she brings experience from diverse clinical settings including nursing, hospice, inpatient and outpatient programs, schools, and long-term care. Dr.

Wilcox places emphasis on self-care strategies that address mind-body wellness, such as mindfulness, movement, and nutrition, while using brief evidence-informed interventions to target symptoms like depression, addictive behaviors, sleep difficulties, eating-related concerns, and ADHD-related challenges. She frames therapy as a collaborative process focused on practical outcomes and teaches skills clients can apply between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care



Dr. Wilcox uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is practical for symptoms like anxiety, depression, sleep disruption, and problems with concentration. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that support coping during stressful transitions and intense emotions.

Finding the right approach is an evolving, collaborative effort. The therapist works with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences, adjusting strategies over time based on what helps most in day-to-day life. Clients and therapist decide together which methods to prioritize and how to practice skills between sessions.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access care from home in Colorado. These formats support ongoing skill-building, brief check-ins, and varied communication styles so clients can use the tools they learn in the settings where they live and work.
