Christine Evans

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience working with adolescents and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, OCD, depression, identity development, and work/relationship stress. I earned my bachelor's degree in University Studies with a concentration in Race, Gender, and Ethnicity from Texas A&M University and my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I use an eclectic approach, drawing from CBT, trauma-informed, person-centered, narrative, and other evidence-based approaches based on each client's needs. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and solution-oriented, and I believe therapy can be meaningful without feeling overly formal or clinical. I also appreciate using humor when it fits because sometimes being able to laugh in therapy is part of feeling comfortable enough to do the harder work!

My approach to therapy is collaborative, practical, and tailored to each client instead of using a one-size-fits-all model. I balance giving clients space to process with helping them identify patterns, build coping skills, and work toward concrete changes in their lives. My goal is to create a warm, down-to-earth environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves while still feeling gently challenged and supported in moving forward.

In the first session, we’ll talk about what brought you to therapy and what you’re hoping to get out of it. We’ll come up with goals together and figure out what feels most important to focus on. In future sessions, I’ll usually check in on themes or goals we’ve talked about before, while still leaving room for whatever is coming up for you that week. Some sessions may be more focused on deeper work, while others may be about getting through current stressors. I also often give clients a skill or something small to practice between sessions.
