Are you tired of feeling trapped? Do you feel like you don’t fit in anywhere—including therapy? Welcome; I'm a therapist who doesn’t fit in here either. I don’t believe in offering "coping skills" for triggers, I believe in eliminating your need to be triggered in the first place. And I believe that what you think your problems are, are likely not your actual problems.

Maybe you are just tired of feeling so much, or not feeling anything at all. You are wondering if a new path is possible. It is.

We try to take care of ourselves, connect with supportive people, and make good decisions - but being alive can be overwhelming at times - losses of health, loved ones, our sense of balance. When this happens it may bring up older unresolved issues or we may feel depressed or anxious. Sometimes it helps to just slow things down and look at what's going on with curiosity rather than judgment. It might be time to take a step back to look at what your goals are, what obstructs you enjoying your life more and getting satisfaction from your relationships, to look at creating new meaning from your experiences.

I tend to work with people who feels overwhelmed by their emotions, relationships, or past experiences and is ready for meaningful change in their life. Many of the people I work with are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, or difficult life transitions. They may feel stuck, exhausted from carrying so much alone, or unsure how to move forward. What they want most is relief, clarity, and a safe space to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves more fully.

I have been licensed since 2006, and my background includes extensive experience in addiction treatment in inpatient, outpatient, and detox settings. That clinical experience gives me a strong foundation, but what matters most in my work is tailoring therapy to the individuals. I especially enjoy working with professionals, both individuals and couples, who want a thoughtful, high-quality therapeutic experience. My approach is both depth-oriented and practical. I use evidence-based, eclectic, and psychodynamic therapies. The goal is not simply to manage symptoms, but to understand what is driving them and create change.

Do you feel worry, restless, or overwhelm? Do you have a critical voice that's really harsh, wanting you to be perfect or to please others? Have you noticed yourself feeling hopeless, not good enough, or stuck? Do you have behaviors that you can't seem to overcome or change no matter how hard you try? My clients learn how to separate from the parts of them that takeover, understand their thoughts and impulses, allow their true self to take the lead, and access curiosity, calm, clarity, and courage. That being said, I’m a very casual therapist who provides a human experience. Let's be human together!

Hi, I'm Christine! I base my work in the belief that our well-being is shaped by our relationships- how we relate to others, our environment, and self. When we feel a safe connection in these areas, it's easier to be more present with life's joys and feel resilient when faced with stress. When we feel unsafe or disconnected, it's natural to become stuck in anger, fear, criticism, or sadness. Over time, this can change how we see ourselves and our ability to make meaningful choices. I understand what it's like to feel stuck in survival mode and how challenging it can be to find safety.

How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
