Christina Chambers

As a licensed marriage and family therapist with over a decade of experience, I have had the privilege to work with individuals, couples, and families to navigate a variety of challenges. Throughout my years of practice, I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in community-based mental health, in-home therapy, and outpatient therapy to cope with various issues such as infidelity, substance abuse, interpersonal conflicts, grief, navigating divorce, blending families, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, helping a loved one through illness, and complex trauma. Although my initial training was in systemic approaches, I have advanced graduate training in foster care, pre- and post-adoption, trauma-informed care, neuroscience, substance abuse, and evidence-based practices to meet your needs.

I maintain a client-centered approach, using the best-suited evidence-based models tailored to your individual needs. My approach to therapy is to build rapport with clients by creating a safe, judgment-free space. Whether it's developing coping skills or learning how to navigate difficult situations, I use creative approaches to manage life's daily challenges. I listen with empathy and respect, and use humor when appropriate to break the ice. While I will be there to provide affirmations and emotional validation, I will also challenge you to consider a different perspective to help you build hope and get unstuck in difficult situations.

During our first session, my aim is to get to know you on your terms by providing a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing your story. I encourage you to share what you need in a therapist as well as your goals for therapy. From there, we will develop a plan with measurable, realistic goals to achieve a desirable outcome.
