Getting to know Christina Albanese

Seeking therapy can be a difficult decision. Finding the right therapist can be even harder. I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where you feel truly heard and supported. I believe healing happens through a trusting, collaborative relationship—and I have deep confidence in each person's capacity for growth, change, and resilience. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Stony Brook University in 2008 and have spent nearly two decades helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and confidence. I specialize in working with adults experiencing depression, anxiety disorders, chronic stress, trauma, grief, life transitions, and other sources of emotional distress. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and holistic, tailored to your unique needs and life experiences. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based approaches, and Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help you manage symptoms, build self-awareness, and foster long-term change. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and behaviors that may be holding you back from the life you want, while building new tools for insight, coping, and emotional well-being. I also take a strengths-based approach—focusing not only on the challenges you face but on the inner resources you already have to overcome them. Let’s work together to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and in control of your life.
