Christina (she/her) has a warm, humorous, curious, and humanistic approach to therapy. She understands the need to be heard, validated, and seen for your life experiences without judgment. Believing you are the expert of your life, Christina holds space for you and all of your parts, including cultural, spiritual/religious, and personal/social identities.

Christina’s passion is trauma work. Trauma comes in many forms, and each experience can have a profound impact on our overall functioning. Feeling stuck, activated, immobilized, and foggy can feel impossible to overcome yet healing from within is possible through holistic and specific treatment.

Not fond of tradition, Christina loves to incorporate many tools into the therapeutic space including walk and talk outdoors, somatic breathing exercises, and meditation practices in conjunction with her trauma therapy modalities. Christina is trained in both EMDR and Brainspotting. Both modalities help empower from within and build your internal tools. More specifically, EMDR helps you move beyond negatively held beliefs about yourself and past experiences. Brainspotting helps you process and release stored somatic material in your body.

If you are interested in learning more about EMDR/Brainspotting, please email Christina or view resources below.

Already have a great talk therapist but also want to complete trauma treatment to further your healing? Christina offers short term trauma intensives using EMDR and/or Brainspotting. Intensives are specific trauma focused treatment that occurs for several hours a day over the course of a week or more. The benefits of doing an intensive are the potential to move through trauma and work toward healing in a shorter period of time, having a specific time set aside in advance to come prepared to do the work, and have a treatment tailored specific to concerns you want addressed within an open window of time that can feel stunted in just a therapeutic hour.
