8 years offering treatment
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Utah. I received my master in social work degree from the University of Utah and have been counseling for about eight years. While in school, I did a concentration in forensics and earned a certificate in criminology and corrections. I worked within the criminal justice system for about six years with adolescents and adults. While working in the criminal justice system, I was able to work with clients who have a variety of concerns. These included addiction, grief and loss, anger management, conflict resolution, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and transitioning to life outside of the criminal justice system. I currently work with parents in helping them navigate the work-life balance. Being a working parent myself, I have a strong passion for understanding the variety of challenges that are going to happen. Being able to access and receive the necessary resources available to help parents is crucial for navigating our busy lives. Sometimes being able to navigate our emotional and mental health is one of the best things we can do as a parents. This experience is about your personal growth. My position in working with you is to find the areas in your life that are not working well and see how they can best be improved and encourage your further development in life’s challenges. My approach uses a combination of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, strength-based, solution focused, and mindfulness. Making the decision to work with a therapist is not always an easy one. There are times it can feel uncomfortable to share your personal experiences with someone you have never met. I want to assure that I will not judge the choices you have made in your life or the feelings you have. There will likely be times that this experience will be difficult and others where you will enjoy it. I hope you are able to embrace these opposing concepts through your journey, as it shows your growth and work being accomplished. While I am on this journey with you and am excited to begin getting to know you better, I want you to feel comfortable in talking with me. If you have any concerns about the therapeutic process, I encourage you to discuss them with me at any time in this journey. Again, I am excited to begin working with you and getting to know you better!

As we go through life we face challenges, from these challenges we may experience pain and suffering. As this pain becomes stored within us it creates burdens that may sometimes be too heavy to bear. As I work with clients, to explore and resolve pain and trauma, I work to help them explore what is at the root. We learn to navigate the pain and trauma with self-compassion, and foster skills that help us engage in healthier ways with ourselves and others. Through self-reflection, processing emotions, and learning to respond rather than react the burden of pain is often reduced. I am a Clinical Mental Health Counselor licensed in Utah & Indiana, who has been providing mental health and behavioral interventions since 2016, in a variety of populations including children, families, and women. I have worked with clients with a wide range of experiences and mental health concerns some of which include depression, anxiety, relationships issues, parenting issues, behavior concerns, ADHD, trauma, complex PTSD, and compulsory disorders. I take new virtual clients through BetterHelp, Grow Therapy, and my own private practice. My approach to therapy includes a client based approach through the use of validation, TF-CBT, CBT & ACT, somatic exercises, awareness, and motivational interviewing. I am a compassionate professional and my approach is mindfulness based and solution focused. I believe each client holds within them everything they need to resolve challenges, you are the expert on you and this is your journey. I provide a nonjudgmental space within which individuals and families can explore their options and approach individual issues. I am available M-Th 5am- 11am EST. I encourage email communication regarding the therapy process, your questions, and any concerns.

Hi! I'm Christina, a licensed therapist in Utah with over 10 years of experience. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with clients ranging 4 years old to end of life/geriatric care. In different settings, from schools to on-call crisis intervention, couples therapy, adolescent treatment programs, family counseling and high level executive counseling. I’ve seen firsthand how life’s challenges can leave people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the future—but I truly believe change is possible for everyone. My approach is down-to-earth, supportive, and solution-focused. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help you not only work through past experiences while also learning the tools in order to create the future you want. You are the expert of your own story, and I see my role as helping you uncover your strengths, build confidence, and learn how to navigate life’s ups and downs. I became a therapist because I know how powerful it is when someone truly listens, validates your experiences, and gives you the space to grow. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, self-doubt, relationship issues, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to support you. We’ll work together at your pace, focusing on what matters most to you. Taking the first step toward change takes courage, and I’m honored to be part of that journey with you. Either way, nice to "virtually" meet you!
