Christina Staiger

Mental Health Therapist

Growing up, I was always the person my friends and family came to when they needed to talk, and I quickly learned the power of truly being heard. That natural pull toward connection and understanding is what led me to pursue a career in mental health — and it continues to guide how I show up for my clients every day. I specialize in working with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. I also have a deep passion for working with couples and families, helping them strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and reconnect with one another. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including psychodynamic therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and attachment-based and trauma-informed care. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a partnership. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely safe to explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment. Whether you’re working through something specific or simply trying to understand yourself better, I’m here to walk alongside you — at whatever pace feels right for you. Outside of the therapy room, I find joy in being in nature, spending time with people I love, and finding little moments of beauty in everyday life. I bring that same sense of curiosity and presence into my work with clients.
