Christina Kulp, LCSW

Christina Kulp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina and Pennsylvania with 23 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, ADHD, caregiving strain, and life transitions. She also works with issues related to aging, chronic illness, bereavement, and career strain.

Her approach blends straightforward, practical methods with longer-term exploration. She commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are used to support small, concrete behavior changes. Psychodynamic and narrative elements are used when it helps to understand recurring themes in someone’s life.

Christina’s background includes work in geriatric, nonprofit, and healthcare settings and post-graduate certificates in Gerontology and Palliative/End of Life Care. She is pursuing a doctorate in social work through a combined program at Kutztown and Millersville Universities. That mix of clinical and field experience shapes how she frames problems and goals.

In sessions she focuses on building trust and using a strengths-based stance so people can name what is hard and try practical steps. Conversations are direct and aimed at helping someone tolerate difficult feelings, shift patterns that cause distress, and make decisions that fit their life. She asks about the realities of work, family, and health and uses those details to make therapy relevant.

People who choose her often want both immediate coping skills and time to understand deeper patterns. She works with a range of concerns including trauma and abuse, caregiving stress, grief, bipolar mood challenges, and issues related to gender and sexual identity.
