Getting to know Christina Vargas

Sometimes in life we feel disappointed, overwhelmed, disconnected, or just stuck. This might be with work, family, relationships, life choices, or your health. I am here to help navigate these paths to reach the other side, identify the challenges or cycles causing the slowing of progress. I aim to create a warm, safe, supportive space to identify what is holding you back, we will work to reach the place you want to be. As a veteran, I understand the challenges faced by military members, veterans, their family members, the imposed transitions and the culture. I have extensive experience in terminal illness/grief & loss.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is compassionate, warm, and direct. We will work on building trust and breaking the cycles that are holding you back. I value honest and open communication, building upon your strengths, use of humor, and encouraging peace in one’s life. I also have extensive experience working with grief, loss, and terminal illnesses, as well as veterans issues. I have more than a decade of experience, working in a wide-range of settings and working with folks with a variety of backgrounds, cultures, and problems. My specialties include grief and loss, terminal and chronic illness, anxiety, trauma, military/veteran issues, relationships, and life transitions.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

We will work together to build a therapeutic alliance, identify the focus of our work and develop a plan to meet goals. Every client is an individual and I am a firm believer that there is not one size fits all in therapy. Working together is how we can identify your strengths and build upon them to reach success.
