Introduction

Hello, I'm Dr. Christine Baker, a licensed therapist specializing in sexual addiction recovery, betrayal trauma, and complex trauma healing. My journey into this field began with a deep desire to help individuals reclaim their lives from the grip of addiction and the wounds of trauma. Throughout my career, I've witnessed the profound impact that unresolved trauma and addictive behaviors can have on individuals and relationships. This led me to pursue specialized training in Somatic Experiencing, a powerful body-oriented approach to healing trauma and regulating the nervous system. I work primarily with adults struggling with: - Sexual addiction and compulsive behaviors - Betrayal trauma in relationships - Complex trauma from childhood or prolonged stress - Anxiety and depression related to these issues My approach is unique in its focus on the mind-body connection. By integrating Somatic Experiencing techniques into our sessions, we work to address not just the thoughts and emotions tied to your struggles, but also the physical patterns held in your body. This comprehensive method often leads to deeper, more lasting change than traditional talk therapy alone. In our work together, you can expect a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your challenges. We'll collaborate to develop practical strategies for managing urges, processing difficult emotions, and rebuilding trust in relationships. My goal is to help you not just overcome your current struggles, but to build a foundation for long-term emotional health and fulfilling relationships. Whether you're taking your first steps toward recovery or have tried other approaches without success, I'm here to support you on your journey to healing. Together, we can work towards a life of greater authenticity, connection, and inner peace.
