More about Christine

  • 28 years' experience
  • Female
  • LICSW, LCSW

I am a Vermont and Maine licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience working as a therapist, supervisor and program manager in community mental health and outpatient settings. I have worked with individuals, children and families with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, self-esteem issues, OCD and ADHD. I have also helped many individuals and teens who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive, balancing humor and tasks in a way to create a safe space for you to explore, heal and grow. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines client-centered, solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy approaches, which essentially means that my focus is on you as an individual and I will adjust my treatment methods and plan in order to meet your unique and specific needs. Our sessions are for you and I want to make sure that you are able to get the most out of them that you can by learning and partnering with you on your journey to wellness.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change by reaching out for help. I know that is not always easy to do. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

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.

Jun 2024

Christine is great at creating a comfortable space while challenging me when appropriate.

May 2024

Christine has helped provide me with a lot of insight into my own learned responses and thinking. She has continuously provided me with worksheets that help me reflect on our sessions. Through all of this I have learned crucial information regarding myself, which in turn has helped me take the necessary steps to change harmful thinking and reactions. The difference I see in my life is so significant! I am a very hands on person who learns best when tools are provided to me and Christine does that very well.

Apr 2024

She’s amazing, I’ve jumped right in with what I wanted help for and she’s helped me so much with a knowledgeable mind and understanding. Can’t recommend her enough!

Mar 2024

Christine has been instrumental in helping me 'turn my head around'.

Feb 2024

Christine has been really helpful to me during a chaotic time in my life. Always providing clarity and support. She's professional, on time, and easy to talk to.

Jan 2024

She does an excellent job helping me vent and replay things where I could work on changing my mindset

Jan 2024

Christine has helped me manage my anxiety and stress through CBT and helps me put stressors into perspective.

Dec 2023

Christine has been a calming, comfortable, friendly and easy to communicate with Therapist. Personally, I bottle a lot of my emotions up and have struggled with anxiety and depression to a point that I regret. Christine has really helped me address my stress and anxiety and understand how to communicate with my family and spouse, and also realize what is situational stress and what is actually valid stress. I honestly can’t thank or praise her enough. She is great at messaging me after our video session to remind me and highlight on what we discussed. Which in turn really helps, I can reference back to her advice and techniques to help throughout the daily struggle. I have often gone back weeks and months to reread what she has told me, to help ground me and understand that I am overthinking situations or devaluing myself. I truly and honestly am a stronger, more confident, healthy, understanding and less anxious person and husband because of her.

Christine is incredible. I've been talking with her during a period of intense personal stress and she's done a lot to help me stay grounded. I've talked to a few therapists through this app, she's the first one to really make me feel that she's hearing my concerns and genuinely cares.

Sep 2022

Christine became a grounding force in an excessively tumultuous time of change and loss in my life. I was in a period of self discovery that required a lot of vulnerability and I never once felt that Christine was anything but objective and understanding. At the same time she was personable and inviting. A real combo of skill and talent and genuine care. Highly recommend.

Sep 2022

Christine has helped me more than any other therapist--and I've been in therapy on and off for over 15 years. I've made real changes with her help, and I'm extremely grateful for it.

Aug 2022

Christine is very knowledgeable. I am thrilled to be in this process. I hadn't had "therapy" in 20 years. I can definitely say the process and the value has changed with the times in a really good way.

H.E.·Aug 2022

I’ve only been with Christine for a short while, but she is very understanding and kind. She tries to cater to your individual needs and is very timely in her responses despite how busy I’m sure she is. She has helped me feel more normal in what I’m going through and feel, and I finally feel heard. I look forward to see where time brings me during my healing with her.

S.H.·Jul 2022

Christine is a wonderful provider and I wish that her experience and support could be given to all members in need!

Christine has been such a blessing. She identified my working style and met me where I needed her to. She provides summaries after every visit that really help direct my progress. Christine checks in on my goals and holds me accountable with worksheets and readings, which have been a huge add to therapy as I struggle with follow through. I have so much other wonderful adds but I will summarize by saying she is a highly experienced clinician who deserves a 10 star review!

I have only had a few sessions with Christine, but I feel confident with her expertise in this field. From the first session, she was able to articulate and detail different paths we could take to achieve my therapy goals. I always feel like she understands what I am trying to say and is able to name and validate my feelings and experiences. She is non-judgmental and caring-but also I feel like we are super productive in our sessions. I always end our sessions with my eyes a little brighter and more hopeful.
