Christine O’Connor

My communication style

I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. My communication style is compassionate yet direct—I listen closely to understand your experiences and offer honest, constructive feedback when helpful.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path to becoming a mental health provider is deeply personal. As a child, I struggled with depression and later faced challenges with substance misuse. These experiences shaped me profoundly and led me to pursue my own healing, ultimately finding strength through recovery.

My goals for you

Throughout treatment, we'll explore your goals together and clarify what matters most to you. I prioritize transparency, mutual trust, and active engagement. As you progress, I'll help you track your growth, celebrate your wins, and remain accountable to the goals you've set.

Our first session

The first session is all about getting to know you—your story, your experiences, and what has brought you to therapy. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and it's completely normal to feel nervous or unsure. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can speak openly.
