Christiana Hargrave, Therapist
Since my high school days, I have been interested in the field of psychology and the improvement of mental health. I pursued these interests at Holy Names University, where I received a dual Master of Arts In Counseling and Forensic Psychology. I have practiced for many years in nonprofit and forensic settings, having worked with victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse and sexual offenders, as well as school counseling with adolescents.
In my sessions I like to create a comfortable, friendly, and supportive atmosphere. My predominant therapeutic styles are cognitive-behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy, but I also like to apply other styles depending upon my client’s needs and treatment goals. I have specialized in many areas of therapy, including harm reduction, trauma, anxiety and depression, development of life skills, problem solving, risk reduction and various areas of sexual dysfunction. I have had the pleasure to work with many people of various ages and backgrounds. I consider myself an LGBT+ ally and continuously work on cultural competency as well as social justice areas that can impact individuals.
