LPC, 20 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
With over 20 years of counseling experience, I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and life transitions. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree and a strong commitment to supporting clients in their journey toward healing and growth. My approach is collaborative and compassionate. I believe that therapy is a safe space where you don’t have to face challenges alone. Together, we will work to identify obstacles, build coping skills, and create lasting positive change so you can move forward with resilience and hope.
In our first session, we’ll begin with brief introductions and a conversation about what brings you to therapy at this time. I’ll ask questions to better understand your history, current challenges, and goals, while also giving you space to share what feels most important. Together, we’ll begin identifying your priorities and outline a plan for how we can work toward them in future sessions. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, heard, and supported as we take these first steps toward positive change.
As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, my greatest strengths are creating a safe, supportive space and helping clients apply practical tools to everyday challenges. I bring strong communication skills to guide clear, meaningful conversations, and I use empathy and compassion to build trust so clients feel truly heard. I adapt strategies to fit each person’s unique needs, helping them challenge unhelpful thought patterns, build healthier coping skills, and create lasting positive change.
I work best with individuals who are ready to explore their thoughts and feelings in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment. My clients are often seeking relief from anxiety, depression, grief, or the effects of trauma, and are motivated to better understand themselves and their patterns. In our work together, I strive to provide empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness to help facilitate self-exploration and growth. Common goals include building self-awareness, improving emotional regulation, enhancing self-esteem, and developing greater self-acceptance. Whether you are navigating life transitions, struggling with relationships, or simply seeking personal growth, I am here to support you on your journey.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress.

Person-Centered Therapy, is a therapeutic approach that emphasizes creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings freely.

I felt very comfortable sharing my feelings and thoughts with Christine. She was very warm and easy to talk to. I’m excited to start this journey with a solution based treatment plan that she has proposed.
