Khristine Anthony has over seven years of experience treating adults, teens, and families. Geographically,I have worked at transitional homes for veterans, treated active-duty members and their families , and worked with first-responders. In addition, I have worked in detention centers and I am experienced with SUD (substance use disorders).

As a mental health provider I value health and safety, I am trauma-informed, and embrace diversity.
