Hi, I’m Christina. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps teens, families, and adults navigate anxiety, trauma, and life’s high-stress seasons. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported — a place where you don’t have to hold it all together or figure things out alone.

In addition to private practice, I work in community crisis response, supporting individuals and families during difficult or overwhelming situations. This experience helps me stay calm, practical, and focused on what truly helps when life feels heavy.

Therapist

If you tend to overthink, second-guess yourself, or feel emotionally drained by stress or relationships, you're not alone. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Together, we'll slow things down, make sense of the patterns keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to help you feel more confident in yourself and your relationships.

I also enjoy working with couples who feel caught in cycles of conflict or disconnection and want to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over six years of experience providing therapy and more than a decade of experience in social services. I've worked in both community mental health and outpatient settings, and my approach blends insight, curiosity, and collaboration with practical strategies you can use in everyday life. I believe therapy should help you better understand yourself while creating meaningful, lasting change.

Welcome! Congratulations on taking your first step toward finding a therapist. Having experienced the therapeutic process myself, I understand that seeking support can be challenging and takes courage. You can do this!

After 10 years experience in counseling, I specialize in a range of evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). In addition, I am in the process of developing my knowledge base in Somatic Experiencing (SE) therapy. My experience with these treatment modalities allows me to tailor treatment to your unique needs and experiences.
