Hi! I'm Dr. Christine Sparacino and I'm a licensed clinical psychologist. I specialize in health psychology and work with individuals with chronic illness, autoimmune disease and diabetes (all types). I also specialize in working with highly sensitive people, empaths and helpers, who struggle with boundaries and burnout and giving too much of themselves. I offer therapy related to grief and loss and navigating various life transitions.
If you're someone who feels everything deeply or has a lot on their plate, I specialize in working with souls who feel everything—the highly sensitive and deeply empathic among us.
I help by talking with clients about every day struggles and noticing patterns in their lives. Together we take that insight and turn it into real change. In our first few sessions, you can expect that I will ask a lot of questions to get to know you and to understand your story and why you’re here. Therapy helps us understand ourselves better.
I am passionate about this work because I love seeing clients break patterns and live a freer balanced life. Using psychoanalytic psychotherapy & coaching, I help clients understand their sensitivity and empathy, to navigate life transitions, and to transform overwhelming emotions into sources of wisdom and authentic connection.

Groups
Silent Studio
As a psychologist with 20+ years experience, I've seen how creative avoidance isn't a matter of skill & discipline, but a form of self-protection against vulnerability & judgment. Silent Studio is a creativity group to address this pattern. Participants meet 3x/week via Zoom for one hour of quiet creative work — writing, journaling, or any creative practice. Sessions opens with a meditation, followed by silent work alongside others. There is no required interaction; cameras on or off. This is low-pressure & structured to support neurodivergent & Highly Sensitive individuals. Silent Studio meets Monday, Wednesday, & Friday, with flexible attendance. The cost is $49 per month.
