Getting to know Christina O'Donnell

I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker who is passionate about creating a warm, welcoming space where clients feel understood, supported, and comfortable being their authentic selves. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and other emotional difficulties, helping them build confidence, resilience, and meaningful coping skills.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), strengths-based therapy, and supportive counseling to help clients gain insight, navigate challenges, and move toward meaningful change. I recognize that culture, identity, and life experiences play an important role in shaping each person’s journey. My goal is to create an approachable and supportive environment where clients feel empowered to explore their thoughts and emotions, build on their strengths, and create a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When you are ready to get started, schedule an initial assessment visit (intake) through Zocdoc. After you book an appointment, a care coordinator will reach out to review your method of payment and/or insurance number and answer any initial questions you may have before our first visit.
