Hi there, I'm Christina. I am a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist that has been in practice for over 11 years. During our sessions, we'll work at your pace and where you are at emotionally. Creating a safe space filled with compassion and kindness is important to me, plus a mixture of mental health interventions. We'll set a goal and work towards achieving that goal. Don't worry, we don't have to delve deep into your past if you are not ready. Sometimes there is the need to process what you are going through at the moment and have someone to be there and listen and that's okay too. We can start there.
In our first session together, we'll start brief introductions then dive into specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow up sessions.
*EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocess) *CBT *Internal Family Systems *Solution Focused
Having worked with victims of trauma and immigration cases for the past 12, I've developed a playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
My clients are eager to improve, motivated to try to change but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and feel they are not worthy enough to feel good about themselves.

Christina is a good listener. She never makes me feel judged, rather validates my experiences. Christina truly listens as her advice is always pointed to a solution that helps me move forward. She gives me tools that can help me process my thoughts and truly helps me work things out in a session.

I was referred to Christina due to her experience using EMDR and other techniques to help clients with trauma of all kinds. I found her to be warm, understanding able to help me process decades old trauma. She is helpful and resourceful in guiding me to find the root causes of some of my feelings. I trust her completely and it's easy to open up to her.
