Getting to know Tina Christoffersen
I have experience working with a broad range of age groups and am well versed in several therapeutic modalities that promote self-growth, self-empowerment, and healing. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the State University of New York, Stony Brook.
Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, childhood trauma, relationship issues, increased stressors, or other life adjustments, you will be an active participant in your therapeutic process. Together, we will develop coping strategies and gain the insight needed to overcome any mental health challenges that arise.
I utilize insight-oriented, CBT, and solution-focused approaches within a holistic framework, all delivered in a supportive, safe, and non-judgmental environment. I will teach you how to retrain your brain by reframing negative thought patterns and recognizing cognitive distortions. We can also explore how to bring the subconscious into conscious awareness to gain a deeper understanding of yourself.
Allow me to guide you through your therapeutic journey so you can emerge stronger, more resilient, and equipped with effective coping strategies, a stronger mindset, and greater self-awareness to create the best possible outcomes for your life. Change is possible. There is hope. You just have to want it and take that first step!
I am currently offering virtual/video sessions. Aetna and 1199SEIU insurances are accepted.

Ms. Christoffersen was a breath of fresh air. Appointment was challenging due to out schdedules but she was very understanding. My recent retirement re-surfaced PTSD brought on by my previous career. Ms. Christoffersen brought to therapy new insights and suggestions to cope with and eventually overcome these nagging proplems. She was professional in our dealings yet empathtic in her manner.

Tina is a great therapist. I have been working with her to try to overcome my childhood traumas that still affect me to this day and she has been amazing. Her schedules are flexible, and her wait times are kept to a minumum if at all. I never wait!
