I will say, “I have been there and done that!” This rollercoaster of life poses many challenges, but I have learned that you can have peace in the process. That is what I offer through my counseling services. I am ordained as a minister and am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the state of New York since 2006, although I currently live in Florida. I provide Telehealth sessions.

I am a compassionate, client-centered therapist who provides supportive spaces for adults navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and more. I work with individuals to achieve greater clarity and balance in their lives. My approach in collaborative, trauma informed and strengths based with a focus on building insight, resilience and coping skills. I aim to empower clients to feel more grounded and confident. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform, explain yourself, or minimize your pain. It’s a space to slow down, unpack what’s weighing on you, heal from past experiences, and build a life that actually feels like yours.

My name is Christina Siegel, I’m a bilingual licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years experience in the field. I’m Cuban American south Florida native. I received my bachelors degree in sociology in 2009 and my masters degree in social work from Barry University in 2010. I then moved to NY where I have been living since. I worked part of my career providing outpatient mental health therapy to individual’s and families and have spent the last 10 years working in an inpatient psychiatric hospital. I’m a firm believer that no one is exempt from needing therapy at one point in their life and there is no shame is taking care of your mental health. It is essential to give mental health the same respect we give to our physical health. The majority of my work has been focused on cognitive behavioral therapy with adolescents and adults. I’ve treated individuals struggling with various needs; adjustment disorder, loss, trauma, psychosis, separation/divorce and family conflict. If you’ve thought about getting therapy I encourage you to take the risk and If you’ve been to therapy and had a poor experience I encourage you to try again.
