About Christina
Christina Ortiz-Marquez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 17 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges with relationships and intimacy. Her work also addresses trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, and parenting strain.
She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. Christina blends several approaches to match what each person needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and client-centered methods.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and practical. Clients learn skills, try new behaviors, and reflect on what matters most to them. Her background includes many years supporting first responders and survivors of sexual assault.
That experience informs how she helps people rebuild trust, set boundaries, and handle strong emotions. Christina pays attention to communication patterns and attachment issues that keep problems repeating. In sessions she focuses on clear goals and simple steps.
She uses mindful practices to reduce reactivity and DBT skills for tolerating intense feelings. ACT ideas help clients clarify values and make committed changes that fit their lives. Christina aims to create a calm, respectful environment.
She encourages small experiments and steady progress. People leave with tools for managing stressors, improving relationships, and handling life transitions.

Online support
How attachment and skill-based therapies work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people notice patterns in closeness, trust, and boundaries so they can make different choices in relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions toward them while learning to sit with difficult feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina will discuss goals and preferences, then combine methods that fit the person in front of her. Together they decide whether to emphasize attachment work, CBT skill building, ACT values work, or a mix depending on the concern and pace the client prefers.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people meet face-to-face when travel is hard. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide flexible, on-the-go options for brief support and between-session contact. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still working on symptoms, relationships, and coping skills.
