About me
My goal is to provide comfort and care for you as well as a safe and non-judgmental space to talk about everything and anything. Sometimes we just want someone to listen, and even that alone can be therapeutic. I am willing to listen to you and help you understand your thoughts and feelings better. You are not alone; allow me to be there for you.
As a psychotherapist I am trained in working with individuals, as well as groups to help them manage a range of psychological and emotional issues ranging from anxiety disorders to psychosis. Having completed my MSc in Counseling Psychology and Psychotherapy, I am capable of understanding inner conflicts as well as addressing each person’s thought process, feelings and behavior with respect, sensitivity and empathy. During these years, I have learned how to work with issues of diversity in different settings, as well as how to deal with crisis or conflict. I have worked in settings such as mental health hospital, college setting, worked with the unemployed population, as well as the incarcerated.
I hold an LPC license from Wisconsin as well as Illinois, and I am a Licensed Clinical Hypnotherapist . My counseling style is warm and empathetic, and I am highly influencedby the existential/humanistic approach, while incorporating brain-based techniques.

Christina has been very helpful with my situation in thinking more openly, engaging my emotions, and validating my experiences. It has been very useful for me to be able to utilize this experience and appreciate the help from Christina.

Christina is patient and lets me think my problems through. She doesn’t pressure me or try and impose an agenda.
I am able to learn from my experience and put these lessons into practice. I am constantly encouraged by Christina and this positive reinforcement has helped me immensely.

Probably the best experience with therapy I've had. I love the convenience and how Christina remembers when my "down time" is to communicate

Christina has helped me navigate the death of my husband of 38 years. She has given me the space to explore the deep sadness, and has also given me the tools to understand the grieving process better. I value the text chat, as I cry a lot. This resource has been very effective, and I feel comforted and supported by Christina.
