I am Christine Hoffman working with individuals with mental health issues. I have an ability to invoke trust, warmth and empathy with my clients. Through my career many people have noted a natural connection with me and a desire and comfort in talking about their concerns. I strive to use those connections to promote a therapeutic relationship that fosters positive emotional growth of my clients.

All of us experience times in our lives when a little help is needed. Perhaps now, it is a period of time in your life that is emotionally difficult, a death or loss you are grieving, struggles with depression or anxiety, problematic relationships, or just want to work on personal growth. Perhaps you need a sympathetic, nonjudgmental ear with someone whom you can trust. I hope you can find that person in me.

I take an empathetic, strengths based approach in utilizing my expertise to allow you to process your concerns and empower will you develop an effective plan to address these concerns and achieve your treatment goals.

I enjoy working with student athletes and additionally have several years of direct clinical experience in an acute health care hospital setting supporting individuals and their families with acute and chronic medical concerns.

I'm here to listen, support, advocate, and sometimes stay silent with the person in front of me that presents issues such as multicultural and social justice, anxiety, depression, trauma, identity development, minorities, psycho-oncology, end-of-life issues, health disparities, LGBTQ+ and Latinxs. The most important thing I want you to take from therapy is that you'll rise again. Understanding that being able to be your true self is one of the most vital components of good mental health, I am glad to be part of that journey with you. There's no ideal or perfect client; there's a human struggling or going through tough times.

Coming out as transgender and moving out into the world as a transgender person can be both frightening and overwhelming. Having a safe place to express who you are and not feeling rejected but affirmed and validated, may be the first step in your journey to embrace yourself identifying as transgender or questioning. Whether questioning or uncertain, transitioning or have transitioned, having a safe place, and a warm and compassionate person who understands your journey of expression is the beginning of living and expressing yourself to your very fullest potential as a transgender person while moving within the greater communities.

Sometimes experiencing anxiety feels worse than anything else. You may feel overwhelmed, frustrated, irritable, worried about the uncertainty of life, and completely isolated from the world. Anxiety can lead to intrusive thoughts, avoidance of one or more situations, and reassurance-seeking from family and friends. Maybe anxiety causes you to obsess over things like-- "Did I make the right choice? What if something bad happens?" Anxiety is uncomfortable, physically and mentally draining, and, at times, depressing. You might feel a complete lack of control and find it hard to cope on a day to day basis.

I see clients in Newark and Lewes Delaware. I am seasoned clinician of thirty five years. I have been in private practice for 25 years and am within walking distance of the University of Delaware.

I know what it's like to feel backed into a corner and how helpful it can be to have that extra support. Finding a therapist can be similar to finding the right school, the right shoes, or the right couch for your new apartment; sometimes it’s a fit right away and other times it’s a process. As someone who has spent time therapist shopping myself, I emphasize the importance of working together to help people find the therapist that fits for them. I work with individuals to create the most comfortable fit in our work together, using a collaborative and holistic approach to therapy and viewing the therapeutic process as a team effort.

I feel that compassion, trust, and understanding are the foundations of therapy. In my 25 years of practice, I have found this personal approach works best to help heal emotional pain. I help people who have been experiencing problems like anxiety, panic, depression, relationship problems, co-dependence, chronic worry and more. In a safe and respectful environment, I will work to understand your personal struggle with emotional pain and help you to work toward a better life.

Nice to meet you! Talk to me! You have my attention! Memories are not just thoughts; they are also felt. It takes a skillful Clinician like me to help make the connection between thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I am aware that the mind replays what the heart cannot delete, and we are all unique in our experiences. This is why I implement different approaches that are practical, purposeful, directive, and problem-solving in nature. I value honesty, self-worth, and the importance of a working relationship. I approach therapy as a healing process. “Scars tell where we have been. They do not dictate where we are going.” Hearthplace.

I know that as men (& women), we hold alot in, we juggle obligations as fixers, because thats what we are taught or dealt. We aren't neccessarily wired to feel, at least not outloud. Too much feelings your soft, too little feelings your heartless. So we hold it in which breeds, dark; deep & sometime empty. At this point your just riding this wave called life, numb. Coping skills low. Problems high. Recently you have been hearing alot about counseling, and said let me see somethin'. So you came accross my page, & Im pleased that something about my profile led you to consider me for a partner in this journey towards healing & growth.

Hi, I'm so glad you're here! You're taking the first step on the path of healing and growth for yourself. Life can be overwhelming at times. Anxiety and depression can make you feel stuck.

You as a client are the expert of your own experience. I use a client-centered that includes complimentary techniques and methodologies from attachment, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, trauma informed mindfulness, and motivational interviewing in our work together to find the best version of you.

Seeking help for your mental health is the most important decision that you will make in your life with long-lasting results. It is my vision that everyone should live free of judgment, distress, discomfort, and free of emotional turmoil. As a society, we have become conditioned to sit in our lives, to accept our circumstances, however unpleasant they are. Therapy can help overcome those circumstances. Together this can be achieved. I will stick by you and help you live the life you want. I use motivational interviewing techniques, CBT methods and my therapeutic modality is based on a psychodynamic /psychoanalytic foundation.
