Christine Pemberton

My communication style

My communication style is warm, non-judgmental, gentle, direct, honest, and compassionate. I cultivate an environment of safety and trust where you can feel comfortable talking about whatever is important to you. I foster open communication to promote a collaborative and helpful therapeutic space.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was always the friend and family member who was sensitive to the feelings of those around me. A specific life experience resulted in my own wellness journey and was a turning point that led me to become a therapist. I feel grateful and privileged to be able to do this work.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting starts with asking, "If therapy is working and you are feeling better, what specifically in your life would you notice would be different?" Goal setting is fluid, and I help clients shift their goals to meet their needs while remaining focused on the common threads of progress.

Our first session

In our first session, we will spend most of our time talking about what has been going on and what led you to therapy. I will actively listen nonjudgmentally and encourage you to ask questions. Together, we will start to create a treatment plan and set goals as a path toward progress.
