Christina works as a counsellor at Acadia University. Her areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, eating disorders, musician's mental health, relationships, grief and loss, spirituality, and yoga philosophy (including the practice of pranayama - breath control). She is a certified yoga instructor and former professional musician. In 2022, she was an associate professor for the School of Music for Acadia University. Previously, Christina worked as the child and youth therapist for eating disorders Nova Scotia and as the eating disorders therapist for Child and Youth Mental Health in Duncan, BC.

I have worked with children, youth, adults, elderly, indigenous, international, and LGBTQIA2S. Our first session will involve me getting to know you, so I can tailor our counselling to your needs and your goals. You are in the driver's seat and tell me as little or as much as you feel comfortable with. Most clients start experiencing a sense of moving forward and relief after a few sessions.
