More about Christina

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am an LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) in Oregon and Hawaii. I have been working in a clinical setting as a clinical social worker for 6 years. Three of those years have been exclusively virtual, so I am comfortable and accustomed to providing online therapeutic support via video, telephone and text messaging.

I have an eclectic approach and utilize a variety of treatment techniques including: Internal Family Systems, EMDR, Brain Spotting, Mindfulness, Emotional Freedom Technique, Tapping, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy.

I believe that you are the expert in your life experience and that the answers you need to reach your definition of success lies within you. My role is to help guide you to your own truth.

I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, & trauma and abuse. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

I look forward to meeting you, answering any additional questions you may have and helping you on your journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
