Christina Joseph
Hello! I am Christina. I'm a LCSW dedicated to providing a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where you can explore life’s challenges and work toward meaningful growth. I believe deeply in a strengths-based approach, meeting you right where you are while honoring your resilience, agency, and capacity for change because therapy is a partnership. Whether you are navigating overwhelming stress, major life transitions, anxiety, or the complexities of life through substance use recovery, my goal is to meet you exactly where you are. My primary therapeutic framework is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helping you build psychological flexibility, align with your core values, and move forward even amidst discomfort. Additionally, I am trained in Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT) to help process and heal from past experiences that may be impacting your present to help you build practical coping tools while honoring your unique story and strengths.
Strengths
In our sessions, you can expect a grounded partnership rooted in authenticity, humor, and active collaboration. Drawing from my background in supporting substance use recovery, I bring a steady resilience-focused lens that honors your inner agency and capacity for growth. My goal is to make therapy feel like a safe, empowering space where you are truly seen, supported, and equipped to move forward.
Treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
In our work together, we won't waste time trying to 'fix' or erase your thoughts and feelings. Instead, using ACT, I help you make room for uncomfortable emotions while building a life grounded in your core values. My approach is practical, active, and tailored to your goals.
Trauma-Focused CBT
I use TF-CBT to help individuals safely process past trauma, master coping skills for triggers, and rebuild a grounded sense of personal safety.
