Introduction

Christine Whittaker has over a decade of experience providing individual, relationship, and family therapy. I have completed Level 3 Practicum Training in the Gottman Method Couples Therapy and authored a co-parent and divorce course curriculum. My extensive experience includes helping people in the community for 18+ years, 10+ years in my private practice with individuals, couples, multi-partner relationships, mental health disorders, affairs, and family systems. I explore common pathways between actions and thoughts and help find growth and change. I individualize treatment for mental, emotional, and behavioral distress and encourage a non-adversarial approach to empower, strengthen, reorganize, or rebuild. My goal is to help people find meaning and purpose in life, find common pathways between actions and thoughts, and create a safe place to find positive solutions. Empathy, compassion, and understanding help me to take a relational, non-judgmental approach to my work. I provide direct, simple, and straightforward techniques of communicating that are instrumental in helping people stay grounded, focused, and validated. I prefer to individualize treatment for each client by choosing the specific type of theory or therapy that meets individual, relational or family needs that target the desired outcome of therapy
