Christina King

Christina King is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with 20 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. Christina also works with issues such as divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and life purpose concerns.

She trained in clinical art therapy and mental health counseling. Christina often uses expressive arts and somatic experiencing alongside talk-based work. These tools are offered as options; no art skill is required and body-based practices are introduced at a comfortable pace.

Sessions aim to help people notice what feels stuck, name difficult feelings, and try new ways of responding. Christina emphasizes practical ways to cope with overwhelming feelings and to manage transitions. She will suggest creative exercises or simple body-oriented practices when they may help move a concern forward.

Her style is steady and direct, with attention to the physical and creative parts of experience as well as thoughts. Many clients come when their work or life feels uncertain, when grief is present, or when a midlife shift raises questions about direction and purpose.

To begin, prospective clients use the site's matching process and schedule an initial session. Christina uses her combined background to help people clarify next steps, experiment with change, and build clearer routines for day-to-day coping.

How expressive and body-focused approaches translate to online work

Christina often uses expressive arts and somatic experiencing alongside talk-based therapy. Expressive arts means using drawing, movement, or other creative exercises to notice feelings and thoughts that are hard to name; these activities are simple and don't require artistic skill. Somatic experiencing involves gentle attention to bodily sensations to reduce tension and help people respond differently to stress and grief.

Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with clients to decide which techniques fit their goals and comfort level. That may mean trying a short creative exercise one week, then focusing on breath and body awareness the next, and adjusting based on what helps the person move forward.

The biography does not list which online session formats are used, so please confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight, and let clients use creative exercises in their own environment. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt expressive and body-based tools so they work well over distance without needing special equipment.
