About Christine
She brings 17 years of experience in community mental health. That background shaped her routine of listening first and tailoring each session to the person in front of her. Christine emphasizes dignity and treats people as individuals rather than labels.
Christine uses a mix of approaches that support thinking, feeling, and behavior. She draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Mindfulness practices and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are part of her toolbox. These help people manage intense emotions, reduce reactivity, and build calmer responses to stress. Sessions focus on simple, repeatable actions people can try between meetings.
Her background includes work in community mental health since 2008 and recognition through four Social Work and Community Mental Health awards in Kentucky and Louisiana. She also has study experience in theological seminary related to social work and is open to questions about that part of her training. Christine works in Florida as an LCSW and offers services in English.
