Christine, LMHC
It takes strength to admit that life has become unmanageable, that your previous ways of coping are less effective than they use to be. The first step to healing is acknowledging that those negative thoughts and feelings have been impacting your ability to lead the life you want. The next step is to ask for help. While asking for help can be overwhelming, I provide clients a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental atmosphere in which to explore their path to healing. I offer a strength based and person centered approached to treatment. I will work with you to meet you where you’re at and help you reach your wellness goals.
I earned a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Salem State University then continued my training to obtain my License in Mental Health Counseling. I have previously worked as a counselor at a residential group home, leading groups at an adult day treatment center and providing individual as well as group therapy at a community mental health center. I have experience working with variety of different issues including Anger Management, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Grief, Pregnancy and Postpartum, and PTSD. I look forward to supporting you through your journey to wellness.

EVOLVING INTO MOTHERHOOD: ANXIETY + DEPRESSION SUPPORT FOR NEW MOTHERS
The first year of motherhood can be an all-encompassing roller-coaster ride. With soaring highs and devastating lows. While it can include joy, amazement, love, and excitement it can also be lonely, isolating, exhausting, scary, and guilt-ridden all at the same time. While these emotions are all a normal part of the motherhood experience sometimes, they can become overwhelming and prevent us from being the mother we want to be. At these times it can be helpful to talk to other mothers undergoing similar hardships.
The Evolving into Motherhood: Anxiety and Depression Support for New Mothers is a six-week support group for mothers in the first year of their child’s life experiencing postpartum anxiety and depression.
We welcome mothers to a safe non-judgmental space to learn and process together. Over the six weeks we will be covering multiple topics including coping tools, self care, communication with partner, attachment with baby, and healing through supplemental offerings such as yoga and sound healing. This group will provide you with a safe space to discuss your feelings and struggles with other new mothers undergoing similar journeys.
