You are grieving, heartbroken, or lost. You didn’t get the job, you broke up with your partner, someone important has died. Grief is normal and exquisite and painful. You want to talk about it, but you don’t want to burden anyone. Here you have permission to be a burden. To be messy, seen, repetitive, and stuck. I’ll meet you there, but won’t leave you there. We work towards managing the unimaginable. Reckoning with the stories we tell and the paths lost, in order to reconcile with where we truly are. There you will find possibility. New stories, new love, new hope. There you will find the courage to start again.

Thank you for visiting our group practice page, No Limit Trauma Specialty Group. We appreciate you in advance for taking interest in our supportive services. I am Christine, owner and lead clinician of our practice. I am a licensed clinical social worker that specializes in treating trauma using Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, integrative medicine, and other modes of therapy that support each individual in reconnecting with the loving person within.
Aside from my personal and familial experiences with mental health, I have worked in the mental health field for 16 years, have had the pleasure of working in various settings with client's of all ages at different stages of life. Through all of my experiences working with client's, the one commonality I have observed amongst them all has been the need to address unresolved past pain that seems to continuously show up in the present day for people, causing disfunction, a lack of self love, and unending unhappiness.
I am not a healer, I am simply a person who supports people to discover their own power, inner wisdom and strengths. I help people get the barriers out of the way so that they can love themselves no matter what their pain or circumstances may be.
I utilize a humanistic approach (striving to help people uncover, address, reprocess, and heal from their trauma to meet their highest protentional); while seeing healing through a holistic lens (working to help individuals heal by reconnecting mind, body and spirit).
If you are ready to heal the wounded inner child, who we like to call "the little", our supportive services may be the best fit for you. To ensure we are a good fit, we require a consultation call prior to finalizing appointments. We look forward to connecting with you and discovering your needs.

Hello, I am Kathleen.
Do you feel overwhelmed, burnt out or pulled in a million different directions? Are you struggling with your relationships, work or health? Is it difficult for you to find time for yourself, let alone, be kind to yourself? Do you feel "stuck" and unable to move forward?
Many of us are experiencing loneliness, depression, anxiety and social isolation, so it is important to make caring for yourself a priority. Therapy can help you feel more connected, balanced and peaceful.
Together, we can help identify what is not working and regain a sense of balance. We'll use a holistic approach, addressing the needs of your body, mind and spirit. We will develop a "toolbox" of coping skills and create new insights and awarenesses to help you become a happier and healthier version of yourself.
Seeking therapy can feel threatening but it's one of the greatest gifts you can give to yourself and by doing so also give to others.
In our sessions, I will meet you with kindness, compassion, humor and evidence-based modalities, so you can overcome obstacles and habits that may be holding you back. My goal as your therapist is to provide a safe, supportive and empathic environment in which to work through current issues, conflicting relationships and/or past pain.
I look forward to meeting you and working together.

El Dorado Hills, CA - Accepting clients in CA
Hello! I am dually licensed as a Mental Health Therapist and a Professional Clinical Counselor. I openly seek opportunities to help navigate wellness and connect with others within our community and with families to promote overall systemic health.
I enjoy working with teens and individuals who are motivated and ready for change. I greatly value connecting with people, and one of the most satisfying things in life for me is to help others reach their personal goals and get to know themselves better from a place of compassion and curiosity.
I truly understand the struggles present in daily life. I love working with new parents and adults adjusting to the demands of life. Do you have ADD/ADHD? Me too! Let's get some skills and learn about how to minimize its impacts on your life. Growing up in a religious household with toxic and emotionally immature parents can create children who are numb and struggle with expressing themselves... we can work through that!
Whatever your struggles currently- I truly believe everything is figureoutable. Therapy can be scary and can also be pretty cool! If interested in working with me, I am currently offering therapy in-person sessions Mondays and Tuesdays.
