Getting to know Dr. Clair Vines

Hello - I'm Dr. Claire Vines - welcome to my practice! I'm glad you're here. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a doctoral degree in psychology and over 15 years of experience supporting individuals, families, and adolescents through some of life's most challenging moments. My practice is entirely virtual, so I can meet you where you are — from the comfort of your own space. I work with clients across the lifespan, from teenagers to older adults, and I offer sessions in English, French, and Spanish. My background spans a wide range of concerns, including trauma and PTSD, substance use and addiction, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and family dynamics. I approach every client as a whole person — not just a diagnosis — and I bring warmth, curiosity, and genuine care to each session.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I will discussed the processing and discuss therapeutic options, as well as, confidentiality and emotional safety. My approach is to first listen and provide feedback . I believe that one's response often has to do with background, history, past experiences, present situaltion and positive goals for the future, having learned from past experiences.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Emotional regulation, Trauma Focused CBT

In-network insurances
