Getting to know Christina Adkins

Hi there, I'm Christina! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from IU Indianapolis. I believe that clients seek therapeutic services because they are struggling with a life stressor. Therefore, this journey belongs to the client, not the therapist. I enjoy working with adults experiencing increased depression and/or anxiety, trauma, and crisis intervention. I have a strong background in physical and sexual abuse as well as solution-focused therapy. My approach I work with CBT, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, ACT, Client-Centered Therapy, Behavioral Activation, Trauma-Informed Care, and Compassionate-Based Therapy. My focus I specialize in supporting adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and crisis intervention. I also have experience working with Bipolar Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder. My communication style I strive to provide a relaxing and comfortable environment where patients can feel safe. I encourage my patients to see our time together as their safe place, often using sound machines and relaxing lights. I am dependable and proactive, frequently asking colleagues how I can assist once my work is done. I’ve been told I am always smiling and very easy to talk to. My journey to mental healthcare My children and I went through a traumatic experience when they were very young. Witnessing their struggles and working through my own helped me realize the critical need for therapists, especially in a field often short-staffed. I began therapy to give back and now love providing therapy services because I want to make a difference. I enjoy hearing others’ struggles and watching them persevere through barriers and obstacles. My goals for you Since I firmly believe this is the client’s journey, I first ask if the client has an idea of what they want to work on or specific goals they have for themselves.
