Getting to know Christine Dinh

Hi there, I'm Christine! I'm here to let you vent when you may not have anyone you feel comfortable venting to. I won't judge. I'll be calm & patient. I will be curious, though, and sprinkle in some positive & supportive phrases. Don't be surprised if I ask questions or inject humor to lighten the mood when appropriate. Regardless, I'm here for you. My focus I specialize in work/life burnout, anxiety, stress, depression, crisis, grief, anger management, maternal mental health, and perinatal/postpartum depression (having gone through it twice myself). I also work with young adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. My approach My approach is client-centered, strength-based, and solution-focused. I strive to create a warm, welcoming, safe space where you can unpack life’s stress as I calmly listen in a non-judgmental, accepting, honest, and understanding manner so you feel heard and seen. My communication style I like to use relatability and humor in keeping conversations real while developing an open and honest relationship. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began after surviving generational trauma and two bouts of severe perinatal/postpartum anxiety and depression. The unrelenting self-doubt, negative thoughts, unattainable expectations I thought were societal standards, and feeling alone and hopeless broke me. Now I want to help others struggling with mental health problems. My goals for you I see therapy as a partnership, with me guiding and supporting you while you develop insight and self-awareness to make change. Together, through open communication and open minds, we’ll set realistic, attainable goals that matter to you and update your plan as you grow and gain new insights, so we move toward that goal of healing & lasting change. Our first session Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy.
