Christina Berben

Hi, I'm Christina. I believe that within each of us lies an innate desire to grow, learn, love, and contribute to the world in meaningful ways. My approach to therapy is all about creating a safe and supportive space where you can explore your unique goals and challenges, fostering personal growth and self-discovery. In our sessions, I offer practical techniques to cultivate present-moment awareness and regulate emotions, body-centered practices to release tension and reduce anxiety, and skills for adopting healthier habits and breaking free from patterns that no longer serve you. Additionally, I can provide methods for improving time management and help you gain a deeper understanding of relational patterns to promote healthier connections.

I specialize in working with women and college students. As a woman, I understand the complex factors that shape women's lives. If you find yourself giving more than you get, parenting your partner, sacrificing your needs for the wants and needs of others, struggling with balancing career goals and family responsibilities, or carrying the mental and emotional load of your relationship, know that you're not alone. Through our work together, we'll explore strategies to reclaim your sense of identity and self-worth, learn to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, and practice communicating assertively.

I am passionate about helping college students embark on a journey of self-discovery. If you find yourself navigating the challenges of 'adulting,' struggling to find common ground with your parents, managing roommate dynamics, facing various academic and social pressures, or grieving a recent breakup, our sessions may be a welcome reprieve. Together, we’ll explore strategies for fostering healthy relationships with yourself and others, building your self-confidence, and establishing and growing your sense of self-efficacy.

If you're ready to take the next step in your journey, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's work together to help you achieve the growth and fulfillment you deserve.
