Now accepting new clients for online sessions. Are you walking on eggshells in a close relationship? Do you find yourself avoiding conflict, questioning your own reactions, or feeling invisible in a relationship with a partner, family member, or adult child? It can feel overwhelming when you’re constantly adjusting yourself to manage someone else’s volatile moods, potential reactions, or emotional distance.
You deserve a safe, confidential space where your experiences are met with empathy, not judgment. Prolonged exposure to unhealthy dynamics can leave lasting impacts, often showing up as anxiety, depression, or self-doubt. While narcissism is often named, it isn’t the only antagonistic personality style that can create this kind of relational stress.
I specialize in Narcissistic Abuse, Antagonistic Relational Stress and Codependency, offering support for those navigating toxic relationships. Healing isn’t about betraying others, it’s about honouring yourself. With support, it’s possible to move from confusion and exhaustion toward clarity and inner strength. Book a free video call directly on my website.

Christine is warm yet direct, and challenges her clients to grow in profound ways. I came to her for help with a partner struggling with addiction, and her insight and guidance helped me see and address my own codependency on a life-changing level.
