Recent reviews
I have been in and out of therapy since I was 14 years old, always jumping from therapist to therapist as none of them made me feel like an actual person instead of a client. Christina Andino is the first therapist that has made me feel comfortable being myself and talking about my issues, and her feedback is always catered to me and my unique life. I appreciate what you do Christiana thank you so much.

Hey, I'm Christina Andino, therapist, and the proud owner of Mountains Therapy LLC. I'm on a mission to elevate mental health by guiding individuals and couples toward positive transformation. Grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist clients in understanding and reshaping thought patterns impacting their well-being.
In individual sessions, I use Solution-Focused Therapy, encouraging clients to identify and work towards achievable goals. For couples, I integrate the renowned Gottman Method, emphasizing practical tools for communication, conflict management, and intimacy.
Creating a safe, non-judgmental space is essential in my practice, allowing clients to explore concerns and strengths. I tailor each therapy session to meet unique needs, addressing personal struggles, anxiety, or relationship challenges. Dedicated to providing support and evidence-based strategies, I'm here to help you on a journey of self-discovery or to strengthen your relationship. Let's navigate the path towards positive change and a more fulfilling life together.

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.
