Hello, my name is Christina and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor located in Killeen, Texas. I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Sociology from Drury University. I received my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas A&M University-Central Texas. I also have a certificate in Chemical Dependency and Addiction. I grew up as a military dependant (Army Brat) and later became a military spouse. I am familiar with military culture and the stresses that being in the military can put on those individuals who are serving plus their families. Growing up in a diverse military culture has helped me to be an open-minded, non-judgmental, compassionate, patient, and trauma-informed therapist. I also believe that everyone can benefit from counseling because sometimes life just gets too hard and we need a safe space to retreat, relax and regroup. I have worked with many individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. I would love to help you to navigate through your struggles as well.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together we will get to know one another and establish some goals to help guide the healing process.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have a positive outlook on life and I enjoy helping others find the positive in their lives. My biggest strengths are listening, being warm, bringing calm, understanding, validation, and empowerment. In addition, I strive to work together to navigate the difficult terrain of your mental health concerns, to reach your goals of well-being.
