About

Providing a safe space, being entrusted with vulnerability, and bearing witness to healing is an awe inspiring and mutually rewarding experience. Therefore, a good relationship is the first priority in therapy. Christine realizes that successful treatment begins with a strong therapeutic rapport. This focus allows clients to feel safe and understood, which is a strong catalyst for progress towards healing and achieving goals. Positive results can only occur once a therapeutic alliance is developed.
Through trauma informed approaches, Christine recognizes how adverse experiences impact function and happiness in everyday life. Distress related to normal everyday stressors, trauma through abuse and neglect, early childhood attachment disruptions, or a single catastrophic event will be addressed using cutting edge treatment.
Christine has passion for minimizing heartache, increasing resilience, and changing mental health trajectories. Using client centered approaches with expertise in how the brain, mind, and body are affected by distress, Christine is able to address issues in a calm and relaxing environment that is comfortable for the client.
