Getting to know Christy Mares

The provider is a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern. I am a trauma-focused counselor dedicated to helping individuals and families heal from abuse, grief, addiction, anxiety, and depression. My approach combines evidence-based trauma care, including EMDR, with a psychodynamic exploration of how past experiences shape present challenges. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space for healing and growth.

What should a new client know about working with you?

New clients can expect a compassionate, patient, and nonjudgmental approach. I focus on creating safety and trust, allowing clients to move at their own pace as we process difficult experiences. My style is collaborative; I meet you where you are and guide you toward greater self-understanding, resilience, and hope.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

A typical session may include talk therapy, EMDR techniques, or reflective exploration depending on your needs and goals. Early sessions often focus on building safety, identifying patterns, and setting goals together. Over time, we work to process trauma, uncover root causes of pain, and strengthen your ability to cope and reconnect with yourself and others.
