About Christina
Christina King is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career issues, and coping with life changes, and also addresses concerns such as divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, midlife crisis, self-love, women's issues, workplace problems, and young adult issues.
She trained in mental health counseling and has a background in clinical art therapy. Christina often blends talk-based work with expressive arts and body-focused practices. She explains and offers creative and somatic tools when they may help, without asking for any artistic skill.
Sessions move at a pace set by the client. Christina uses drawing, movement, breath work, or other sensory ways of noticing what is going on when talking alone feels limited. She describes these methods as additional ways to access feelings and memories that are hard to name.
People come to her for life transitions, grief, and persistent anxiety or low self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with workplace stress, questions about purpose, and the emotional aftermath of separation or divorce. Guilt and shame are listed among the focuses she addresses.
Her approach aims to help people notice patterns in their bodies and stories, try small experiments, and practice different responses. The work is collaborative and paced to fit each person's comfort. To begin, clients follow the practice's intake steps to match with her and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions
Christina works from expressive arts and somatic approaches alongside talk therapy. Expressive arts means using drawing, movement, or simple creative exercises to help surface feelings and memories that are hard to put into words. These activities are practical and do not require artistic skill; they are used to prompt new ways of noticing emotions.Somatic work involves gentle attention to bodily sensations, breath, and movement to identify how stress and shame show up in the body. This can help when shame or guilt feels overwhelming and words alone are stalled. Talk-based counseling is used to name patterns, set small goals, and try different responses between sessions.
Finding the best mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which techniques to try, based on goals and comfort level. That choice may change as work progresses, and the client helps guide what feels most useful.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt expressive and somatic practices for remote sessions, for example using short creative prompts, guided body awareness, or paced breathing exercises that fit into a regular routine.
