Hello!
I welcome your interest in seeking out a therapist to work with and hope to provide some information here to help guide your choice.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and board certified art therapist (ATR-BC) with over ten years of experience. I have a passion for helping adults navigate life’s complexities with more clarity, compassion, and connection. My focus is on supporting people who are moving through transitions, processing trauma, or feeling disconnected from themselves and their sense of meaning.
My approach is eclectic and strength based, grounded in a thoughtful application of theories and interventions that can support well-being and self-expression. I draw from person-centered, art therapy, gestalt, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed practices. I strive to bring a warm, down-to-earth presence to sessions.
I received my Masters in Art Therapy and Counseling from Drexel College of Nursing and Health Professions in 2015 and have stayed active in seeking additional education and training, including a three year Gestalt training program completed in 2021.
Additional areas of focus: LGBTQ+ related issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Anger management, Career difficulties, Bipolar disorder, Depression, Compassion fatigue, Caregiver issues and stress, Chronic pain, illness, and disability, Dissociation, Family problems, Guilt and shame, Isolation / loneliness, Life purpose, Midlife crisis, Mood disorders, Panic disorder and panic attacks, Post-traumatic stress, Self-love, Social anxiety and phobia, Women's issues, Workplace issues
Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy

Christine is awesome, and makes me feel like I can talk about anything. She listen to me very well and always has really good feedback and insight on a lot of things we go over

Christine works with me in ways that I've never had a therapist work with me. She helps me through my thoughts, and even tries to help by guiding me through them to work out what I should do when I find myself in difficult situations. She's a wonderful therapist, and I'd recommend her to anybody looking to get into therapy.

I think Christine is great. Her guidance and validation over the last year has changed my perception of what I’m actually going/have gone through. I feel listened to and I appreciate when she takes a pause to really think about the intention she’s putting into her next words and thoughts for me. I am now one of those people that say “well my therapist says…”
