About Me
I completed my graduate degree in 2008 at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI. My fellowship consisted of working in Forensic Psychology with a sexual offender and sexual deviance/dysfunction population. After graduation. I went on to continue my work with this population for 13 years, and have an extensive background in men's issues, sexuality and intimacy issues and sexual addiction issues including pornography addiction. I have also worked extensively with couples, family issues, those struggling with trauma, troubled youth and those struggling with depression, anxiety, change of life, addictions, gender and sexual orientation issues, spectrum disorders and many other treatment issues. I have always put the client at the center of the treatment and adapt the approach to the needs and preferences of my client. Empathy and care-based therapy are always paramount as I believe in creating a judgement-free supportive environment for my clients to feel comfortable talking about the most difficult things for a person to discuss. I have and will employ a multi-discipline approach to therapy as is needed by each particular client and we will discuss the treatment goals together from the outset.

She is excellent and we were a great match. I'm sad she's leaving for a new opportunity, but I'm very excited for her as I am also an equestrian and I fully recognize how much good she'll be able to do in Equine Assisted Therapy!

They say humour is the best medicine and this woman is the funniest person on planet earth! We have long conversations that appear to be about random subjects and she can pull how I am feeling as if out of thin air! A wonderful woman to share my feelings with and someone I feel I can trust and has my best interests at heart!

I was very apprehensive about speaking openly about my personal life, especially online. On our first call, Christina was very welcoming which helped me put my mind at ease and allowed me to comfortably open up and address my concerns. Christina is able to keep the conversations cheerful and optimistic, even if the topic itself may be rather depressing. I’ve really appreciated the help.
Work with me!
