Welcome! I’m Christien Harden. Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can work through life’s challenges at your own pace.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session, we will complete a thorough initial assessment in order to better understand you, the individual. We will begin to unpack the matters that that have brought you to therapy and lay out a roadmap for your individual recovery. Throughout our time together, you will learn and practice a number of strategies to work through the matters that matter to you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Therapy is about having real conversations about what matters most to you—without fear of judgment. Life isn’t always easy, but it shouldn’t always feel like a struggle. If you’re ready to start your journey toward healing and growth, I’d love to support you. Let’s work together to help you feel whole again. Reach out today—I look forward to meeting you.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Finding the right therapist matters. You deserve a space where you can show up as you are, without judgment. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ individuals, those managing anxiety, trauma, addiction recovery, and severe mental illness, as well as high-functioning professionals facing burnout. My approach is direct yet compassionate—we’ll have real conversations that challenge and support you. Using CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care, I tailor therapy to your unique needs. I also have expertise in Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and harm reduction for those navigating substance use. Therapy isn’t just about coping—it’s about building a life where you feel in control and fulfilled. If you’re looking for a therapist who sees the bigger picture and meets you where you are, let’s connect. Your journey to healing starts now.
