Christine Stoutenburg

My communication style

I am very open when talking with clients and may use humor to help you feel at ease. I make sure you feel heard and can share things with me when you're ready. I am not forceful when it comes to discussing strong emotions, and I create a space where you can be authentic and comfortable.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always wanted to help others. My own personal experience being around family members who struggled with mental illness gave me a better understanding of depression and anxiety. Sometimes sharing this helps so you don't feel alone in your journey.

My goals for you

I work with you during each session to check in and see if you feel you are meeting your goals. If not, we talk about how we can help you achieve them. We will discuss openly what you want as your goals for both therapy and your life, and adjust our approach as needed.

Our first session

Our first session is me asking why you are here and what you want help with. I will ask questions starting from when you were younger, leading up to current. We will talk about what type of therapy might work for you and how we can get there together.
