About Christina Maki

Christina is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience. She is honored to work with children, tweens, teens, parents, and families who have courageously chosen to seek help during times of struggle. She has spent time working in the foster care system, community mental health clinics, and private practice. In each of these settings, her primary aim is to help build resilience, find internal strengths, and create healthy relationships. Christina’s style of therapy is relational, strength-based, evidence-based, and integrative.

As a marriage and family therapist, Christina focuses heavily on relationships. These relationships start with ourselves and also include friends, family, significant others, schools, and even communities. When individuals learn how to be successful in relationships, they can learn how to get their needs met no matter the situation.

Christina’s clients describe her as intelligent, humorous and straightforward. She also creates a safe, welcoming, and loving environment that is free from judgment and imposed expectation. In working with Christina, you can expect to feel unconditionally seen for who you are and safely encouraged to explore the most challenging parts of your life and relationships.

Christina received her Master of Science Degree from Friends University and is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Her ongoing training focuses on family, relationships, anxiety, and trauma.
