Christine is passionate about walking alongside women and moms as they navigate the many layers of life—from anxiety, depression, burnout to identity shifts, hormonal changes, and the mental load of motherhood. She provides support through pregnancy, postpartum, early loss, parenting neurodivergent children, and finding balance in relationships and roles. She is also passionate about working with women who have ADHD and is currently working on becoming an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider to better support her clients. Christine also works with couples feeling the strain of parenthood, helping them reconnect and build stronger foundations. In addition, she offers a compassionate space for older teens as they step into the challenges and growth of young adulthood. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and holistic—blending person-centered therapy, ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), and attachment theory. Christine believes in addressing the whole person—emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually—and works with each client to create a personalized plan that honors their unique story and goals. She offers Christian-based counseling as requested. Experience: With over 7 years of experience in coaching and pastoral care, Christine has supported teens, young adults, women, and couples through anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family issues, and major life changes—including postpartum and motherhood.
