Getting to know Christiana Valko

As New York State licensed psychotherapist, I am committed to creating a therapeutic environment grounded in safety, respect, inclusivity, and collaboration. My work is guided by trauma-informed care and multicultural competency, and I deeply value the courage it takes to seek support and engage in the therapeutic process. I believe in each person’s capacity for meaningful growth and change, and I strive to bring warmth, empathy, and compassion to every therapeutic relationship. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing a wide range of concerns, including trauma, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, depression, eating disorders, personality disorders, and challenges related to identity, self-esteem, and relationships. I draw from several evidence-based treatment modalities and tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs. These modalities include Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and biofeedback therapy. I am also certified through the HeartMath Foundation to provide biofeedback interventions. In addition to individual therapy, I facilitate intensive trauma processing and recovery groups. Through a structured and supportive framework, I help clients engage in deeper healing work while fostering connection, community, and a sense of belonging.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach to individual therapy is integrative, collaborative, and insight-oriented. I provide a space where clients can explore their personal experiences, relationships, emotions, and sense of self with curiosity, self-compassion, and without judgment. Together, we identify recurring patterns, uncover strengths and resilience, and develop greater self-understanding. From this foundation, I support clients in making intentional choices that align with their values, goals, and overall well-being.
