LPC, 7 years of experience
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe that everyone deserves to have the life they desire. I have over 7 years of experience in providing therapy and have worked in multiple settings. I know that starting therapy can be overwhelming, and I always meet my clients where they are in their journey. I emphasize the importance of collaboratively working with my clients to identify their strengths and overcome challenges to improve their well-being.
I know therapy can feel intimidating, so I like to keep things light in the first session! I acknowledge that I'm a stranger to you, and I must earn your trust before the therapeutic process can truly begin. I strive to provide a warm and open-minded environment for my clients. Ensuring you feel safe during our time is my priority. During our time together we'll work together to identify your goals and take action steps to achieve those goals.
I approach my sessions with a calm demeanor, always considering my client and their needs during our time. I'm personable, solution focused, and flexible. Establishing a relationship with my client and working collaboratively is an essential strength of mine.
I connect deeply with curious clients who want to become self-aware and are committed to doing the inner work, even when it’s hard. My clients tend to value a down-to-earth, compassionate approach that’s grounded in both insight and practical tools. If you’re looking for a space where you can be authentic, feel supported, and do meaningful inner work at your own pace, we might be a great fit. Most of my experience is working with addiction, depression/anxiety, trauma, and couples counseling.
I love using the Narrative Therapy approach to empower clients to share their experiences. I have found that using this approach can help discover strengths, overcome challenges, and become the author of your own story.
Since unresolved trauma often “lives” in the body, somatic approaches can bring lasting relief where cognitive-only methods sometimes fall short. It helps people not just think differently but also feel differently. Somatic therapy is effective because it doesn’t just talk about change—it helps people experience safety, regulation, and healing in their bodies, which often leads to deeper and more lasting transformation. Through tools like grounding, breathwork, and mindful awareness, somatic therapy helps calm the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and release stored stress. It supports deep healing by allowing you to feel safer and more connected in your own body, leading to greater peace, resilience, and emotional balance.
Unlike approaches that focus only on problem-solving, DBT validates a person’s current feelings while also encouraging growth and new skills. Rather than just reducing symptoms, DBT helps clients define and move toward their own values and goals.

Christina was very kind and made me feel very comfortable and welcome. I really appreciate her ability to connect to the things I say and while also finding a way to turn it into something helpful.

After my first session, I am really looking forward to continue our therapeutic relationship. I am looking forward to working on myself with Christina's help. I feel very confident that I am going to finally make the progress I have been desiring.
