In this workshop I will teach you about the concepts of Vulnerability and Attachment Styles.
You will learn how to be more vulnerable and therefore have more emotional intimacy and higher levels of connection in your relationships.
You will also learn about the three main Attachment Styles and the characteristics and needs associated with each one.
This way you can quickly recognize someone else’s attachment style and stay away from the ones that won’t work. I will provide you with concrete steps to take to stop this vicious cycle and help restore trust in your ability to choose wisely to get the relationship you deserve.
Successful Client Stories
Christine was so helpful to me. She taught me how to figure out what I wanted from a person that I wanted to be in a relationship with. She taught me how to ask for what I wanted and not to put up with things I was not ok with. I finally started speaking up for myself. She helped me with romantic relationships, but also relationships with family members and friends.
Thanks Christine!!

Before I began seeing Christine, my relationship with my spouse was such that I didn’t speak up enough for myself. She has given me the tools to advocate for what I want and need and my spouse is treating me much better as a result.
I also have had depression for years and she has given me insight into that and I was able to reach out to a psychiatrist and have a medication added that has helped immensely.
Christine is very easy to talk with and down to earth with practical advice. She’s a wonderful counselor and I’m very fortunate to have found her.

Feeling relatable, safe and heard are 3 reasons why I knew Christine was the therapist for me. From the moment I walked in to her office, I knew I was safe. What I appreciated most is that Christine never let me off the hook. She offered perspectives that I couldn’t see. Identifying those perspectives and creating strategies to work through them set me up for success. Life is good and I feel like me again.

Christine helped me defeat negative self talk so I could instead recognize my value and better tap into it as I embarked on dating and eventually marriage. The communication and relational tools she gave me continue to serve me well in my relationships. I am grateful for her wisdom and advice!
