About Cristina

Cristina Kroeze is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Wisconsin with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on relationship strains, family conflict, grief, parenting questions, and coping with life changes.

Cristina focuses on practical conversation and steady problem solving. She helps people sort through communication problems, social anxiety, and the emotional shifts that come with pregnancy, postpartum, midlife, and aging. She also addresses concerns tied to divorce, infidelity, and feelings of isolation.

Sessions aim to identify patterns that make daily life harder. Cristina breaks problems into manageable steps and practices clearer ways of talking with others. For parents and stepparents in blended households, she addresses routine clashes, loyalty worries, and co-parenting tensions in straightforward terms.

Her work draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support coping and adjustment. She weaves practical skill building with time to process grief and loss. The emphasis is on skills people can use between sessions to handle conflict, transitions, and emotional overwhelm.

Cristina says faith can be part of the conversation for those who want it. She encourages adults to explore values, set boundaries, and plan realistic next steps. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Evidence-based techniques are used to address relationship and life-change concerns. Cognitive approaches focus on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking. This helps with social anxiety, negative self-talk, and everyday worries.

Behavioral strategies add practice and small experiments people can do between sessions. These techniques support building new routines, practicing communication, and reducing avoidance. Grief-focused work gives space to name losses, process feelings, and plan manageable steps forward.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals and preferences. Plans are adjusted as needs change so the approach fits what is actually happening in daily life.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people join from different locations within the same state, which can help maintain continuity during transitions.
