My clients tend to be people who want to feel more in control of their emotions, more effective at getting what they want, less stuck, more flexible, more connected and really just more at peace. They seek relief from patterns - sometimes chronic and severe, sometimes only subtly troublesome - of painful emotions, negative self-talk and thoughts, rumination, relationship instability and self sabotaging behaviors. Many of my clients tend to have had very painful formative or recent experiences of invalidation that have been difficult or confusing. https://insightgrouptherapy.com/christina-young-polony

I work with individuals, couples and families using an integrative approach to therapy that is tailored to your needs and personality. My style is supportive and collaborative, drawing upon your existing strengths while also building the trust and safety to talk about sensitive topics or explore difficult feelings. Whether you are experiencing career or school stress, struggling with symptoms of depression or anxiety, working through grief or managing interpersonal challenges, I will support you in shifting out of the unhelpful patterns that stand in the way to living a life of meaning, purpose and inspiration.

My objective is to make your life better now and into the future. Therapists helped me over the years, taught and inspired me to become one. I pivoted to my career as a therapist 16 years after earning a B.A. in Economics at University of Chicago. I earned my LCSW at Smith College. I'm a mother of two and a first-generation child of immigrants. In my practice I want you to make the most of your time with me. I work with a range of clients, from executives to college students. My office is tucked into hills and trees. Clients are from my town, Mill Valley, Sausalito, Kentfield, Tiburon, San Francisco and the South Bay. I Zoom too.
