Meet Christina

I believe the foundation of therapy is the partnership between the therapist and client. I work to create a trusting and safe space, where you can express yourself without judgment or shame. I believe we are all capable of change and growth. With your goals in mind, my role is to help you gain a better understanding of yourself, create effective coping strategies, and build confidence in your own strengths and abilities. I root my practice with a Strengths-based and Person-centered approach. To help you meet your goals I prioritize understanding you and where your identity, values and life experiences intersect. During our sessions you can expect a trusting environment, warmth, and humor.

I work to create a trusting and safe space, where you can express yourself without judgment or shame.
