More about Christine

Hello! I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 10 years of experience in treating people of all ages, backgrounds and walks of life. I use a strengths based approach when treating my clients, believing that we all have tools within us that we can use to help during the bumps in life and sometimes need a guide to help us use these tools. As a therapist I hope to be a partner in healing and growth. I've worked with clients who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, LGBT issues, relationship problems, chronic illness, and grief. It is most important to me that I build solid rapport with my clients and that they feel safe and accepted.
Although not everyone is willing to take the plunge, I think that everyone can benefit from counseling.
I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Christine is very supportive, encouraging and has helped me in so many ways! She has provided me with many tools to help me survive and ease my anxiety and depression.!!
Christine has been an amazing support during a difficult time and I am really feeling the benefits of the past six months of counselling. She is warm, makes me feel at ease and is a wonderful listener.
I have only been working with Christine for a couple of weeks, but I am already glad I signed up for BetterHelp. We were well matched. Her demeanor is very approachable and comforting. There is no awkwardness even though we’re only meeting through video chat. And her suggestions are practical and helpful. I am glad to have her help navigating this difficult time.
After trying many different therapists, I'm glad I've found Christine. She gives me the space to share my thoughts and offers really insightful advice. She is caring and nurturing, and has helped me tremendously.
Christine was able to offer support, help and advice in the best possible way, she never judged me and made the sessions enjoyable and easy. She really helped me put things into perspective and has given me the tools to live in a better, healthier way.
Christine has really helped me over the past few months. She has pointed me in the right direction in so many ways, changing my perspective of my problems and helping me to understand them and tackle them in the correct way. Christine is a very genuine, empathetic counsellor that I would recommend to anyone.
Christine has been wonderful so far. Despite the hardships I continue to face, I feel a difference within myself to better myself after starting therapy with Christine.
Christine is great and she’s help me see a lot of things from a new perspective I am happy with my experience
Christine and I have been communicating for two weeks and the benefits to me, especially during this time of isolation due to the pandemic, have been significant. She is quick to respond and provides ideas for ways to enhance this experience. I feel a real connection in this short time - amazing! Video chats and texting are the ways we keep in touch on a daily basis. I highly recommend Christine Parisen as a competent, knowledgeable and effective counselor.
