Hi, I’m Christina Mathieson, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a passion for helping individuals overcome challenges and find greater happiness. As the founder of My Mental Climb, I believe that life is a mental climb, with each step offering opportunities for growth and self-discovery. My approach is centered on providing compassionate, non-judgmental support to help you navigate through life's difficulties.
Expertise in Human Sexuality and Comprehensive Therapy
I specialize in creating a safe and supportive environment for exploring human sexuality. My goal is to help individuals and couples feel confident and empowered in their sexuality. In addition to my expertise in human sexuality, I offer extensive experience in addressing a wide range of issues, including relationship dynamics, family concerns, trauma, and mental health.
Holistic and Collaborative Counseling Approach
My counseling approach is deeply collaborative and holistic, recognizing that every individual’s journey to mental and emotional well-being is unique. By fostering a non-judgmental space, I empower clients to explore their struggles and discover new strategies for overcoming them. Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your distinct needs, goals, and values.
Personalized Support for Your Unique Journey
Whether you are seeking guidance through a difficult period or looking to enhance your understanding of yourself and your relationships, I am here to provide compassionate and experienced support. Let’s work together to achieve a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
