My Approach to Therapy

Christine Burgess is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts with 15 years of experience working with adolescents, young adults, middle-aged adults, and older adults who are dealing with depression, anxiety, and codependence, as well as the effects of trauma, divorce, life transitions, and relationship troubles.

My Practice & Services

Christine completed her Bachelor of Arts (BA) in psychology at Westfield State University and her Master of Social Work (MSW) at Boston College. She utilizes mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), boundary development, and other approaches to help clients reach a deeper understanding of themselves, gain increased awareness of behavioral, emotional, and thinking patterns, and discover connections between their psychosocial history and current functioning, all within an atmosphere of nonjudgmental acceptance. Christine embraces the uniqueness of each individual and tailors treatment with that in mind. As a skilled therapist, Christine’s warm and empathetic demeanor, combined with humor and directness, invites clients into a collaborative therapeutic relationship where they are valued and respected at all times. Her goal is to support a process of openness and transformation toward improved mental health and overall well-being.
