Cristina is a registered psychotherapist and a member in good standing with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. She holds a Master of Psychology and a certificate in Trauma Psychotherapy from Adler Graduate School of Professional Psychology.

Cristina provides therapy for adolescents, adults, and couples who present with a wide range of difficulties including trauma recovery, depression, anxiety, addiction, stress, relationship difficulties, anger, and bereavement. She is eclectic in her treatment style, using a variety of treatment approaches including, but not limited to, cognitive-behavioral therapy, supportive counseling, psychoeducation, relaxation training, pain monitoring, thought disputation, and de-sensitization techniques.

Cristina works to create a safe space in which her clients are comfortable to express their inner feelings, thoughts, and emotions. She assists clients with gaining insight and awareness to better understand the patterns of their behaviors and what may be driving these particular behaviors. Once clients have begun to develop this insight, it becomes possible for changes in behavior to occur, leading to improved functioning and personal growth.
