Hello! My name is Christine and I have been working as a therapist for 10 years. I have experience with ages 5+. I've worked in community behavioral health and in school systems with diagnoses such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, adjustment disorder and more. My main treatment modalities are person centered therapy, CBT and Trauma Focused CBT trained. I enjoy helping others to process the core problems and guide what can help make their daily life more enjoyable.
My approach to therapy is letting the client take the lead in what they feel they need to talk about. In doing so, I help process and point out patterns of behavior and thought process that might be hindering progress in mental health. I enjoy challenging clients when they are ready to take steps in a positive direction with the support needed.
In the first few sessions, I mainly focus on building a relationship. There is no trust without a solid relationship. I will ask many questions along the way to better understand your environment in which you live your daily life, your background, and understand how you process things. This will help me meet you at your level, and hopefully make progress together.
