Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome! I’m Christina, I’m a licensed clinical social worker.

A bit about me, I earned my MSW from Columbia University and my BA from Stony Brook University. For the past 7 years, I’ve specialized in acute care. I’ve worked in various acute psychiatric settings, from community mobile crisis teams to psychiatric emergency rooms.

My main focus is to help young adults and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression and relationships issues.

In addition, I currently work within a hospital system and specialize in supporting healthcare professionals. This experience allows me to bring a deeper, firsthand understanding of the unique challenges and emotional demands that come with working in medical settings.

My approach to therapy

Everyone comes to therapy for a specific reason, and I believe that we can start exactly there. My approach is situation focused and person centered. I am here to guide, listen and provide psychoeducation.

What you can expect from me

I like to start with getting to know each other and hearing about what brought you to therapy and your goals that you are looking to achieve. I believe it’s very important for you to feel that we will make a great team, in order to navigate the stressors in life.
