I am a queer therapist and have been a licensed therapist for over a decade. I graduated with my Masters in Mental Health Counseling in 2013, and have focused my career on the intersection of eating disorder treatment and the queer community. I am passionate about my community role and am excited to meet you! I have experience working with clients who are struggling with health disabilities, chronic conditions, ADHD, OCD, end of life issues and more. I encourage you to book a session to see if we're a good fit!

If you're struggling and looking for extra support—whether you're navigating a major life transition, facing challenges in your mood or relationships, or working through past trauma—I’m here to help! I seek to help my clients manage a variety of issues unique to women and couples, including the emotional and psychological changes that accompany your fertility and parenting journey. I frequently work with concerns related to infertility, loss, pregnancy, the postpartum period and the menopause transition. I bring specialized training in anxiety, depression, self-esteem, parental support, and relationship issues. My goal as a therapist is to walk alongside you through life’s challenges, helping you grow into a healthier, more fulfilled version of yourself.

You’re here because something in your life feels heavy, confusing, or just off. Maybe you’ve been strong for everyone else for years and you’re finally wondering, “Who’s taking care of me?” Maybe you’re in a season where you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break. You might look fine on the outside—but inside, you’re tired, disconnected, or longing for a real change.

I get it. Most of the client's I work with feel exactly that way before they reach out. They’re smart, capable, and resilient... but they’re also carrying a lot. Life transitions, relationships, trauma, people-pleasing, burnout, old coping habits—they add up. I help my clients' slow down, and understand what’s driving them.

I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are without fear of judgment.

I work with adults, young adults and children experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, and life transitions. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), somatic interventions, and mindfulness to help clients better understand themselves, develop effective coping skills, and create lasting change.

With more than 30 years of experience, I've helped individuals navigate anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and life's many transitions with compassion, understanding, and practical support.

I know reaching out for help isn't always easy. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move toward greater confidence, healing, and peace of mind.

Christina's passion lies in helping people holistically, addressing not only their mental health concerns but also their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

My passion lies in instilling hope that recovery and wellness is possible – and worth it! I specialize in eating disorders, mood & anxiety disorders, grief, and the unexpected twists & turns of life. It would be a privilege to walk alongside you as you navigate this journey.

I work with adults navigating many of life’s challenges, including PTSD, anxiety, OCD, depression, panic disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, grief, anger, ADHD, burnout, insomnia, bipolar disorder, and men’s issues. I also support clients facing chronic illness or pain, addiction, identity and relationship concerns, career stress, loneliness, existential questions, and major life transitions.

Hello! For the past 12 years I have worked as a trauma therapist in a safety net hospital with individuals who have life threatening psychiatric conditions. As I embark on a new journey opening my own practice, I hope to use this experience to help you live the life you want to be living. I utilize evidenced based therapies to treat anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and the stress of being a person in 2024.

Greetings and Aloha.

My Positive, Storied Approach to Personal and Professional Growth

Everyone’s life is a grand story, filled with twists and turns, good things and bad things, all grounded in personal life themes. I consider it an enormous honor to be invited into someone’s story and believe that everyone has the power to take control of their stories, write the next chapter, and then make it happen.

Be the hero of your own story! Together we can talk about everything from what you want to include as you move forward, what you want to leave behind, and even the cast of characters in your life! Through thoughtful and genuine exploration, we both gain a better understanding of you and what you bring to the world including your strengths and talents, meaning and purpose. Through the process, my goal is to empower you to create a meaningful story you can be excited to step into.
