Christina is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Nevada, Arizona, Texas, and Utah, practicing since 2023. She holds a Master of Social Work in Adult Mental Health and Wellness from the University of Southern California and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Addiction Treatment Services from the University of Nevada, Reno. Her clinical work spans teens and adults dealing with trauma, substance use, and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Christina‘s Approach

Christina works with teens and adults. Many of the people she sees are trying to move forward while dealing with patterns tied to past experiences or substance use. Some are working to rebuild stability after a period of crisis. Others are trying to understand why the same reactions keep showing up in relationships or daily life.

In session, Christina focuses on what is happening now and how it connects to what came before. She helps clients look at how their thoughts, emotional responses, and habits are linked, especially in moments that lead to relapse, conflict, or withdrawal. From there, the work shifts toward finding ways to respond differently in those situations. The goal is to support changes that hold outside the session, particularly in the environments clients return to each day.
