About Christine
Her background includes degrees in divinity, social work, and clinical psychology, and she uses a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques. That means sessions can include practical problem-solving, skills practice, and conversations that help uncover patterns that keep problems repeating. She has also worked with clinicians who sought support for self-care.
In sessions she pays attention to the ways gender, race, class, and sexual orientation shape a person’s experience. She typically blends practical tools with deeper reflection, depending on what the client needs. The emphasis is on useful steps clients can try between meetings.
Clients often come for help with panic attacks, social anxiety, body image, guilt and shame, or a sense of isolation. She also supports people working on forgiveness, self-love, and finding greater purpose. Therapy is framed as a collaborative process where goals are set together.
Taking the first step can feel hard. Christine aims to make each session a manageable next step toward clearer thinking and steadier emotion.
