An experiential way to work with both your mind and your body in order to land back in alignment with yourself.

I take an integrative and holistic approach to therapy, drawing from various therapeutic models to meet your individual needs. I understand that trauma and/or loss can leave a lasting mark, disrupting your thoughts, feelings and relationships. Because trauma can be so isolating, my focus is on creating a safe and trusting space where you can begin to process and heal from painful experiences.

Through our work, we aim to integrate these difficult experiences in a way that fosters healing and restoration so we can get back to life of meaning and purpose. My approach to trauma is heavily influenced by Gestalt & Internal Family Systems (IFS)/parts work, which believe we all have an innate capacity to heal. However, this natural ability is often blocked by parts of us that have taken on rigid protective roles due to past trauma.

We build trust with these protective parts, allowing us to access and unburden the vulnerable parts that carry the weight of past hurts and negative beliefs. As these wounds are addressed and healed, you’ll likely experience a sense of relief and a deeper connection to yourself and your life experiences. We we are in better connection with ourselves, we can then better connect to our sense of authenticity, others, and the world.

Meet Me. Hi, I’m Christine

I’m an existential therapist who believes in making the most of this lifetime—while also trying to figure out what that actually means in the midst of this polycrisis. I’ve always been fascinated by the ways macro and microcosms mirror each other, and how our personal struggles are deeply connected to the larger systems we live in. Watching the multipotentialite TED Talk was a lightbulb moment for me—why choose just one passion when everything is so interconnected?

When I’m not deep in conversation about meaning, purpose, and the absurdity of it all, you can find me backpacking in the Colorado wilderness, reading yet another book I swore I’d wait to start, or hanging out with my dog—who, honestly, might be a better existentialist than all of us.

You have the right to a Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate”  explaining how much your medical care will cost  

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have  insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical  items and services.  

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. 

• Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. 

• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. 

• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
