Hi there, I'm Christina! I help women move beyond people-pleasing, self-doubt, and the habit of putting themselves last. Whether you’re navigating relationship challenges, loss, caregiving, or a life transition, therapy can help you reconnect with your own voice, develop greater agency, and create a life that feels more authentic and alive. I work primarily with women navigating change, loss, and questions about who they are and what they want in this next chapter of life. Many are adjusting to changing relationships, caregiving roles, aging, or long-standing patterns of putting themselves last.
I take a practical, reflective approach using mindfulness and somatic awareness, along with tools when helpful. We look at what’s been getting in the way and work with it—not just talking about it—so you can feel more at ease and better able to meet your life as it is. My work is informed by NARM, which supports deeper connection and meaningful change.
Starting therapy or returning to it can feel like an important step. I believe meaningful change often begins with awareness rather than advice. If you’re looking for more clarity, steadiness, or a sense of movement in your life, you’re welcome to reach out. We can take a brief moment to see if this feels like a good fit.

I work with anxiety, transitions, and grief, including changes in roles, health, and relationships that come with different stages of life. We reflect with curiosity on patterns and the ways you've adapted, building capacity for self-awareness, insight, and choice. Over time, people often feel more present and integrated, with greater clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of what matters.
