You’re here because

You look fine on the outside, but internally, you're running on empty.

You are exhausted from being stuck in the same cycles, and you're ready for deep work and lasting change.

If you’ve been in therapy before and don’t feel like it helped much, you’re not alone. Let me suggest another approach.

I’ve stopped offering standard 50-minute sessions because the issues I work with need more time and depth to actually make lasting shifts. I offer two options:

Option A: Depth Sessions: (90-minute and 3-hour sessions)

  • For ongoing work with more time to stay inside patterns

  • For people who want deeper, slower integration over time

Option B: Multi-Day Intensives: (3-5 days, 3+ hours per day)

  • For accelerated breakthroughs when you are ready to go all in

  • For couples who want a ‘retreat style’ or full reset experience

Hey. I’m cristine.

I take a no-BS approach to therapy. We go deep so you can get back to your life.

I work with individuals and couples who are ready to stop dealing with surface problems and address the root issues of what keeps them stuck in their patterns. I specialize in Brainspotting, parts work, and developmental and relational trauma. I intentionally use longer sessions and intensives so that you don’t have to open the same wound every week.

You remain in charge of the pace, but I ensure you leave sessions feeling grounded and with more clarity.
