About me

As you know, sometimes life is overwhelming, resulting in feelings of grief, anxiety, anger, or fatigue. It can sap your motivation or leave you with thoughts of defeat and being stuck. I am here to gently help you find your way back, to reclaim your life and keep moving forward.

My practice is based on the knowledge that we are all holistic beings with physical, emotional and spiritual dimensions, dynamically woven together to produce the unique individuals we are. I am certified in Interactive Guided Imagery (sm) and Thought Field Therapy, and have additional training in behavioral nutrition, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR ), and NeuroModulation Technique therapy. I work primarily with adults (both men and women) on issues of grief and loss, chronic pain, depression, anxiety, trauma, and motivation.

When we work together, we will do more than just “talk.” We will work with the resources you already have but may not know how to access, and develop a few new tools in the process. I look forward to meeting you soon.

After only two appointments I do not fee that there has been sufficient interaction to warrant. A review. I will give it another couple of weeks.

I've consulted Christine several times over the last few years and she has been a great help to me as I navigate my mental health journey. I've tried other therapy methods but I am a night shift worker and it works out so well to be able to reach out to her at the time that I am most alert and communicate with her in a way that I am most comfortable with. I think I get the most out of my therapy that way. I like that she frequently reviews goals and makes changes to them as needed.

So far she’s been great. Assures me I’m ok and what I’m feeling isn’t too rash and it’s normal.
I like her worksheets and assignments she has given me so far to complete.

She is amazing! I love her holistic approach, kindness, and openness. I feel she really looks at things from all sides, and has a lot of skill. She has helped me a lot. Thank you, Christine! :-)
