Many clients have kindly written a review to provide you with an idea of what working with Christina for therapy is like.
Here’s what they had to say:

“This experience was more pleasant [than previous experiences with other therapists]. I didn’t feel like advice was being shoved down my throat or like my thoughts didn’t matter. I was genuinely cared for and assisted in the best way to help me unpack and face my issues.” (26/M)

“As my first therapy experience, I had high expectations and also didn’t know what to expect at the same time. In my mind, therapy meant sitting down, telling someone all of your problems and they give you the solutions. This wasn’t the case. Through my experience, I was able to talk out a lot of issues that I have, shared concerns, unburdened heavy emotional weights, and had an unbiased neutral ear to listen through all of it. I was given tools and resources to help me overcome not only what I was dealing with in the present but to deal with issues to come as well.” (24/F)

“I’m happy that I took the step of coming out of my comfort zone and doing therapy. It has helped me throughout the course of what has been the most challenging time in my life. I’m grateful that I opened up about things I couldn’t have with anyone else. I’m forever grateful and thankful.” (29/F)
