Christina Lalama

I enjoy getting to know my clients and helping them to understand that meaningful change and a better life are possible. My ideal clients want to work with their innate strengths and develop positive coping strategies while building communication and interaction skills.

I have over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults; my specialties include trauma focused CBT, specifically with survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I also work with parents of children who have experienced sexual abuse, helping parents learn about abuse while providing support to their child as they heal. Other areas I specialize in include ADHD, anxiety, healthy adolescent relationships, and positive parenting.

My approach to therapy integrates CBT, trauma-informed, and person-centered strategies to help formulate a treatment that meets your needs. Along the way, you'll develop coping and communication strategies that will carry you through on your change course.

My primary goal during our first meeting is that you feel safe and comfortable to share your needs and experiences. Seeking therapy is an important endeavor, and I aim to help you feel supported along the way.
