This diverse toolkit allows Christine to adapt her methods to best serve each individual's needs.

This academic foundation, combined with her real-world corporate experience, gives her a unique perspective on the challenges faced by working professionals and those navigating significant life transitions.

Beyond individual therapy, Christine is passionate about education and community outreach. She frequently presents to large groups on topics such as anxiety, depression, stress management, and the Cognitive Behavioral Model.
