About Christina
Christina LaBond is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina who centers her practice on Internal Family Systems alongside trauma-informed, strengths-focused care.
Background and approach
With eight years of outpatient therapy experience and a broader background in mental health since 2012, she blends evidence-based strategies to help clients navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and substance-related challenges. Christina uses a practical mix of approaches to support people in building coping skills and reconnecting with their personal strengths.
Her training includes a master’s degree from the University of Southern California and clinical work in diverse settings such as community mental health, primary care, outpatient clinics, group programs, and court-related guardianship cases.
Christina has facilitated psychoeducational groups addressing trauma, mood concerns, psychosis, and co-occurring substance use, and she integrates techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to tailor interventions.
She aims to collaborate with clients to reduce distress, improve communication, and pursue meaningful life goals while acknowledging how past trauma can shape present attachments and self-concept.
Integrating IFS and Evidence-Based Therapies Online
Christina often draws on Internal Family Systems to help clients explore internal parts, understand conflicting inner voices, and build self-led curiosity, which can be useful for issues rooted in trauma, self-esteem, and relationship patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide clients in identifying values, increasing psychological flexibility, and taking meaningful action despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy is another strand of her work, focusing on how early relational patterns influence present-day connections and helping clients shift toward more supported ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina works together with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors interventions rather than following a single method rigidly. This partnership helps determine whether IFS, ACT, attachment-focused work, or a combination will best support the client's aims.
Online therapy with Christina is offered through flexible formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, revisit insights between sessions, and maintain continuity of care from wherever the client is located within the permitted region. Licensed professionals can adapt these modalities to deliver skills training, parts work, and values-driven action in ways that suit different lifestyles and access needs.
