Vandertol, Christine

Change is often difficult and unsettling. Life throws curveballs, relationships face challenges, anxieties linger, and past hurts can leave lasting scars. Counseling offers a safe and supportive space to navigate these complexities, providing tools and strategies to work through personal struggles and build a more fulfilling life. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Marriage and Family Therapist, dedicated to a faith-based approach, I understand the unique needs of individuals seeking guidance through these challenging times.

I believe that everyone possesses the inherent strength and resilience to overcome adversity and find healing. Through open and honest conversation, we will explore your experiences, identify patterns, and develop personalized coping mechanisms.

My approach is collaborative, meaning that you are an active participant in your healing journey. We will work together to set achievable goals and celebrate your progress along the way.
