Why did Waldo go to therapy? .............To find himself.
Hey, there! My name is Christina, I am a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor as well as a Pre-Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has a passion for working with individuals. This passion comes from getting a front row seat into watching individuals become the best version of themselves, and watch as they take the control back of their life.
Do you ever feel that you’ve let your emotions dictate your outlook?
Have these emotions impacted your relationships with others?
Do you often wish you could learn to manage conflict in a more of a constructive way?

Hello! Let’s talk about healing…what are we struggling with that is our responsibility to heal and what might we be carrying that was passed onto us? Giving yourself the grace and compassion to heal is one way to change the dynamics of our interactions with others as well as our relationship with ourselves. Holding space for people to explore the impact of mental health on their own life is the central focus of my work. I am a relational therapist and feel that it is most important to establish a sense of trust and empathy with clients in order for therapeutic growth to occur.

For the last seventeen years my practice has been geared towards adults struggling with anxiety and panic, depression, relationship issues of all types, grief and loss, and trauma. I also see clients struggling with addiction and codependency in their family. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I see my job as helping people resolve these issues in collaborative, non-judgmental therapy sessions. I provide an environment where these problems can be explored and resolved. My approach is direct but respectful; giving clients practical skills and techniques that can change their lives.

As a human navigating this ever-changing world, it is my belief that we each hold knowledge, power, and peace within ourselves. However, it is fair to say that we don't always feel this way. I have experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, shame, depression, life change, and trauma. My therapeutic goal is to hold space for you, support you, and help you enrich your life. I am committed to social justice and believe that systemic dynamics influence a person's mental health. I continually strive to have a validating space for all identities, and I advocate for anti-oppression on both community and systemic platforms.

Therapy should be a place where you feel safe to show up as your authentic self — without judgment or pressure to change who you are. My approach is integrative and deeply relational, rooted in Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and trauma-informed care. I believe healing happens in connection – with ourselves and with others – so I focus on building a space where you feel truly understood and supported. My work is also guided by a social justice lens, honoring the diverse identities and lived experiences that shape who you are.

Within each of us exists a childlike version of ourselves that embodies wonder, creativity, and joy. Through our experiences we can become disconnected from this version of ourselves. Curiosity often originates from a place of joy, but external forces discourage and reshape it, making learning rigid, transactional, and productivity-driven. Therapy offers an opportunity to break free from these constraints, reconnect with your authentic self, and rediscover a sense of possibility and growth. Through this process, you can embrace the fullness of your being and the expansiveness of life.

I'm a psychologist assisting people with a wide variety of problematic situations. I have 40 years in the field of mental health counseling and consulting. My practice consists of Telehealth & (limited) home visits during the afternoons and evenings, and consulting in the community in institutional settings. My 4 decades in mental health have taught me the importance of critical lifestyle practices and habits that make or break our mental health, and our overall well being. These include circadian health, sleep hygiene, and a healthy relationship with food, movement, and good ol' Mother Nature.

I specialize in the treatment of OCD, hoarding disorder, and all other anxiety-related disorders: social anxiety, phobias, panic disorder, PTSD, generalized anxiety, tics, and body-focused repetitive behaviors (e.g., nail-biting). As part of my practice, the primary treatment for these conditions is exposure and response prevention therapy, or ERP. What maybe differentiates my practice from others whose principal therapeutic modality is ERP is that I am able to accept a wide variety of insurances. Additionally, I am one of very few clinicians in the state of Minnesota who specializes in the treatment of hoarding disorder.

She remembered who she was and the game changed - Lalah Delia - Deciding to seek therapy can stir up all kinds of emotions. Maybe it’s been a long time coming, perhaps the thing you used to do to get by isn’t working anymore, or maybe life recently threw you a difficult curve ball. Either way, it can feel isolating trying to figure it out alone. Friends and family can be helpful, though sometimes you just need a safe space of your own to regroup and a safe person to walk with you while you do the hard work.
