I was born in NJ where I completed my education at Rutger's University and now live with my family in DE. I have my LCSW in DE, NJ, and CA and currently practice in these 3 states. I am an animal lover of all kinds and enjoy being outdoors as much as I can. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, hiking, exercising, and reading.

I use a variety of skills/approaches that are specifically tailored to my clients' needs.

First session

During our first session, we will get to know each other, build rapport, and discuss any concerns that you have. We will also begin talking about treatment goals.

Ideal clients

Hi! My name is Christine and I am a LCSW in NJ, DE, and CA. I am here to help you have the life you have always wanted! Difficult experiences in life can bring up feelings of anxiety, depression, or lack of direction, it can be hard to know what to do. With compassion and honesty, I will help you to work through issues while identifying your inner strengths to be a happier and healthier version of you. I look forward to taking the journey of healing with you. I specialize in child and adolescent therapy using a combination of play therapy through the Hopscotch Play Portal (an interactive site to engage your child with real time social stories and games) and cognitive behavioral therapy!

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Through cognitive behavioral therapy I will help you explore core beliefs and change your thought process.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Through dialectical behavior therapy, we will explore rational thinking and coping techniques.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

In mindfulness-based therapy we will explore techniques to focus on staying present and the here and now thought process.

Motivational Interviewing

Through motivational interviewing I will help empower my clients to advocate for themselves and explore inner beliefs that lead to lack of motivation.
