Christina Urcinas, LCP — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Christina!

I specialize in helping adults navigate life transitions, mood concerns, and anxiety using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My work focuses on creating meaningful change for those feeling stuck or overwhelmed by life's challenges.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing depression, panic disorder, generalized and social anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, adjustment challenges, self-esteem issues, women's issues, and caregiver stress. Together we develop the tools, resources, and perseverance needed to reclaim your life.

My approach

I provide client-centered, evidence-based therapy grounded in cognitive-behavioral interventions. I recognize the connection between mental and physical health and use educational and motivational strategies to help you improve functioning and reclaim your well-being.

My communication style

I have found that my communication style is a good fit for adults who appreciate direct and thoughtful communication. I strive to create a safe environment for individuals to share and learn in order to chart a path forward.

My journey to mental healthcare

We can't change our past, but I believe we have the power to ensure we live our best present and future. The ability to assist an individual on this journey and ultimately witness the rediscovery of oneself is an honor and drives me to this work.

My goals for you

We'll work together to define what you want to realistically accomplish in our time together. Over time, we'll set goals collaboratively and track your progress as we move forward.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll spend most of our time talking about how you've been feeling recently. I'll ask questions to better understand what may be contributing to those feelings. This session is about building an initial connection and charting our path forward.
