“You are an artist and your masterpiece is your life.”
-Jen Sincero
About YOU.
You put everyone’s wants before your needs. You feel “bad” for having boundaries or saying “No”. You overextend yourself because you care, but who is caring for you?
Hi, My name is Christie…
I am the owner and founder of Internally Grounded. I hold an M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling specializing in Expressive Arts Therapy from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Downtown Boston, I am dedicated to helping individuals live their best lives! I have a deep passion for the arts and self-expression. I do my best to integrate creative techniques such as journaling, play, music, and visual arts into sessions. I find that this approach helps clients identify their needs and explore their concerns in a way that fosters self-understanding and effective communication with others.
My therapeutic style is non-judgmental, adaptive, and grounded. From the beginning of therapy, I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can openly explore their past experiences and set realistic goals.
Outside of private practice, I love to travel. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, engaging in artistic activities like painting, dancing, and creative writing, as well as nature-based activities such as hiking, stargazing, and tree-hugging.
Fun facts: I am a middle child and a proud Leo!
