Hello! I'm Christine Manuel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Therapist. I earned my Masters Degree from the University of Chicago, and I have been in this field for over 15 years. I work with Adolescents and Adults who are struggling with stress and anxiety, the effects of trauma, attachment issues, and Parenting concerns. I have a Client centered approach that allows me to join with Individuals on their journey toward healing.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, I hope to get an idea of the symptoms you are experiencing and what you would like to get out of therapy. I may ask quite a few questions, but I also hope to start to develop trust within the therapeutic relationship.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I love working with people, and I think my genuine interest and investment in my Clients shows. I find that trust and collaboration with the therapeutic relationship allows Clients to feel comfortable to really put in the work. I also have extensive Clinical training, and I am able to build a Client centered treatment plan specifically focused on Individual needs.
