About

"Hello! My name is Christina Gaines. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Masters Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) based in Florida. I also hold licenses in New Hampshire (Licensed Clinical Mental Counselor, LCHMC) and Kentucky (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor). I received my Master's from the University of North Florida and have been practicing for 14 years. You are here because you are exploring the idea of starting therapy to better your mental health and the idea of putting your trust into a complete stranger can seem terrifying. But it is my goal provide a safe and comfortable environment to allow clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, self-esteem and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication and boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life."
