Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who obtained my degree from Marywood University’s Graduate School of Social Work. I completed my undergraduate education at Cedar Crest College, with dual majors in Psychology and Sociology. I have provided counseling in many settings including the geriatric, non-profit and healthcare fields, for over 18 years. I also hold post-graduate certificates in Gerontology, and Palliative/End of Life Care. I am pursuing my doctorate in social work in a combined program through Kutztown and Millersville Universities. I believe in building a solid therapeutic relationship based on trust, empathy and respect using a variety of techniques, and building from a strengths-based perspective to help foster understanding, coping and change. My eclectic therapeutic techniques often include CBT, transformational and psychodynamic approaches, individualized in relation to each client’s need and provided through a trauma informed lens. I am experienced in individual, family, and group counseling. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. My hope is to provide a safe, nonjudgemental environment for you to discover yourself and to start on the road to healing. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! Best, Christina

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

After our first session, we will begin to explore approaches to the areas you have identified as needing work. Together, we will figure out what approach is most effective for you and adjust according to your needs. Clients will often move in and out of therapy....working on a crisis situation, feel better and then maybe return to work on another area or hone their newly learned skills to a higher level. I welcome the ebb and flow of what is needed by the individual and support those decisions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have been told I am very easy to speak with and make those I am working with feel safe. I work from an area of respect and empathy, allowing you to explore what you need to in a loosely structured way. I am particularly comfortable working with those with loss, medical related concerns, anxiety and poor self-esteem.
