Life has a way of throwing curve balls that may feel insurmountable. The curve balls of life can affect you mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

Bring your mustard of seed faith & I will bring my empathetic care with expertise. Together through God healing can be achieved! Come & watch how God uses me in your life no matter your religion or political party. You may come broken, but can leave healed! I am trained to offer specific Judeo-Christian/Judaism integrative faith counseling & military-veteran centered care. Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Tennessee, Texas, & Kentuck

Clients who experience the most benefit while working me are those who seek therapy because they are feeling stuck, like they've been living out a script that keeps repeating itself, and who want to make progress moving forward. If you've noticed dynamics within your family or in your past that keep repeating in your relationships, at work, or as barriers to your goals, then my therapeutic approach may be a helpful intervention. If you live in East Tennessee, we have the option of taking our session's outdoors for nature-based therapy and animal-assisted therapy. And if you are in South Carolina, we can meet online and may even be able to incorporate the horses via video! However we meet, I look forward to exploring your past with you to make sense of the present, for the possibility of a better future.

Pursuing higher education, whether starting college, returning after time away, or continuing into graduate school, can be exciting and rewarding. Yet it can also bring stress, uncertainty, and moments of self-doubt. Balancing academic expectations, relationships, and personal well-being isn’t easy, and many students feel pressure to manage it all on their own. At Christina Cares Counseling, LLC, I offer a compassionate, supportive space for adults navigating the unique challenges of college and graduate life. Together, we can work through anxiety, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, burnout, and the struggle to find balance and direction. I bring over 15 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, independently licensed in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Tennessee. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, build resilience, and find relief through honest conversation, understanding, and practical tools for growth. I also accept several insurance plans through Headway to make it easier to start therapy. These include: • Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield Connecticut (in Connecticut) • Quest Behavioral Health (in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Tennessee) • Cigna (in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Tennessee) • Carelon Behavioral Health (in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Tennessee) • Aetna (in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Tennessee) • Ascension (SmartHealth) (in Tennessee) …with more insurance options coming soon. You don’t have to do this alone; healing and change happen through connection, and therapy can be a place to find both.

HI! I'm Kristin and I'm so glad you're here. If you’re reading this, then you’ve already taken the first step on your journey to healing. It takes a lot of courage to reach out and ask for help.

My counseling style is interactive and warm, keeping it real with humor and truth. I provide psychoeducation, as well as work within the therapeutic approaches of client centered, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution focused therapy. I welcome and celebrate all people in all bodies. I am an LGBTQIA+ advocate and ally.

I have been crossing lines of different cultures and expectations for my whole life, and helping others to do so too. My best work is with helping people manage borderline symptoms, depression/anxiety, "oppositional-defiant" behavior, and/or ADHD. I care a lot about strong foundations in the original ideas of the different treatment modalities I use, like CBT, ACT, or DBT (the original "lore," if you will). At the same time, I'm always looking for connections to the various stories and narratives my clients find meaningful in your own everyday lives, whether it's from anime, the Bible, historical figures, or any mix.

I have over a decade of experience working with the emerging adult population from around the world.

I love working with people who think they may have lost the plot. Who wonder if their symptoms may be a natural reaction to our society and our utter disconnection....from everything. I see you, and I get it. I think there is more to a life well-lived than mainstream notions of success. Come explore your life through values exploration and honest self-assessment, whether short or long-term. Welcoming and affirming for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC. I have an eclectic approach, which is a fancy way of saying that I don't rely on any one way of approaching curiosities. But my starting point is always from a place of your strengths, the things you are doing well, and your unique interests/wants/needs. I trend toward elements from Acceptance and Commitment, Positive Psychology, Existentialism, Brief Solution- Focused, Motivational Interviewing, Behavioral Activation, Radical Acceptance, and Mindfulness. I am progressive in my politics, non-religious, and I believe that cursing is a valid form of self-expression. Humor is a big part of how I communicate and I believe it can get us through a lot of things. Despite being a middle-aged white woman who grew up in the south, you will find no bigoted mindset here. I will never pretend to understand the totality of your experience, but I do promise to see you, hear you, and respect you, while being mindful of the systemic, familial, and cultural issues that may be impacting you. I have stopped taking insurance because of all the barriers it creates from its medical model of viewing functionality and need. I know this creates a financial barrier for some, but I believe that until the system changes, its more of a detriment overall. But lets check those out-of-network benefits and see what we can squeeze out of the insurance company for you :)

Hello! My name is Stacey Shine. Do you feel like you just aren't where you used to be in life? I like to work with clients to get them back to their best level of functioning. My goal in therapy is to essentially work myself out of a job. I want to empower you to tackle whatever obstacles you are facing. In time - you won't need me! Therapy with me is very personalized. I like to make it fit whoever my client is. Sometimes therapy is traditional talk therapy while other times it can include art or movement. I think each person has a unique set of needs and my goal is to try and meet those needs as best as I can.

During our sessions together, I will support you in exploring the many parts of you and how they came to be. I will work with you to identify the negative messages connected to these parts of you. We will form a relationship with these parts and create a safe place for all of you to be seen, heard, and understood. In this safe place, you will heal yourself. Developing my own internal resources has helped me to move through some very difficult times as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Using evidence based research, I provide care that values every part of you and respects where you came from. In those moments of pain and struggle and self-discovery, I will help you to choose yourself. I seek to create a safe and inclusive space for black-bodied individuals, first generation immigrants, LGBTQ+ folks, survivors of trauma, sex workers, and clients who are struggling with relationship and intimacy issues. My approach to mental health care is rooted in anti-oppressive and decolonizing frameworks. The treatment modalities that I use have been found to be effective across many cultures, ages, genders, and experiences. I am here to support my clients in rediscovering themselves, strengthening their mind-body connection, and living the life they have always wanted.

Do you struggle with anxiety or feeling disconnected from yourself? Do you hope that life could feel more connected, fulfilling, and aligned with who you are? Do you want to explore and express parts of yourself that are hidden or suppressed? I believe therapy is a sacred process- one that offers you a safe, supportive place to explore your inner/outer experiences & reconnect with your authentic self. I believe that healing shouldn’t feel so out of reach—that change is possible, and that you are worthy of feeling whole. I offer individualized, trauma-informed counseling for those who are ready to go deeper in their healing. My approach is eclectic & integrative, drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities to meet your unique needs with compassion, acceptance, & support. I aim to create a safe, compassionate space where you can show up exactly as you are. I help you build insight into patterns, develop practical tools, and gently process life experiences. Above all, I hope our work leads to meaningful breakthroughs & small victories—each one a step forward on your path to healing & wholeness. I’ll walk with you toward self-understanding, emotional balance, and a more meaningful life. Book online today for a free consultation, and let’s take the first step together.

College can be a stressful, but rewarding experience. Do you sometimes feel like you don't quite fit in? Do you feel emotionally unprepared at times and honestly, a little awkward? You're not alone, and I want to help you through this journey. If you feel anxious, sad, or that you lack confidence in your abilities, allow me the opportunity to help you through these problems in a virtual therapy environment. You can attend therapy right from your dorm room, in between classes, or wherever and whenever you choose. If you are supporting students, you matter too! I would love to work with you to be your best self.
