More about Christina
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- LCMHC
Christina (B.S., M.A., LCMHC) earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology with a minor in English from Appalachian State University in 2013. Christina earned her Master of Art degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Montreat College in 2017. Christina has six years of counseling experience and has spent majority of her work in the field serving on an Assertive Community Treatment Team in Asheville, NC working with individuals with severe and persistent mental health diagnoses. She has been licensed from the North Carolina Board of Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselors to serve as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (License #13618). I enjoy being a wife and new mother to my 14-month-old son. Lover of cats and dogs. I enjoy boating, hiking, snow skiing, cooking, live music, tarot and oracle card readings.
I have delivered services to diverse populations in the mental health field, ranging from children with severe, emotional and behavioral challenges to adults with severe and persistent mental illness, and co-occurring disorders. I utilize a multimodal approach based on the needs of each individual client. Counseling, to me, promotes the optimal well-being of the whole person and supports the person’s emotional, physical, mental, social, and spiritual needs. I view counseling as a way to assist clients in facing the reality of their lives by facilitating a safe space for their own self-discovery and growth. My techniques as a therapist focus on the client as the active participant for change and myself as the catalyst for collaboration, support, and guidance. I counsel from a strengths-based perspective, incorporating a blend of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction, Solution-Focused, and Expressive Arts Therapy; all of which embody a person-centered approach to healing.
*Please note on my schedule as of right now I am only offering evening session times as I work full-time elsewhere during daytime hours. This will be subject to change in a couple of months when I will be able to offer more flexible hours accommodations.

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.
