About Me
Christine Mathias
LPC | MA
Hi, I'm Christine!
I have been working in private practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor for over 6 years with a focus on adults and the various life changes we face within each adult stage of life including past trauma from childhood. ​​
​
I was born and raised in Chicago and moved to Colorado in 2017. I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to live in this beautiful state and everything it offers.
My Experience
Prior to starting my private practice I worked as a Program Specialist serving those who had medicare coverage and were living in nursing homes due to various reasons. I would visit and collaborate with staff and other healthcare providers to advocate for my members when they were not getting their physical and mental health needs met.
I have also worked in intensive outpatient settings as well as inpatient settings to help adults struggling with navigating chronic mental health conditions.
During this time I facilitated several groups including men’s and women’s groups building a strong foundation within themselves using Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs. This motivational theory is the framework to many therapeutic modalities that therapists use today.

MY PASSION
Neurodivergence
& ADHD
One of my passions is working with neurodivergence, specifically with late diagnosed ADHD or having been diagnosed with ADHD at a young age but not having the resources, tools or support you needed to navigate this condition. There are many gifts and super powers people with neurodivergence possess and I get a healthy dose of dopamine when someone finds those gifts within themselves. ​​
MY APPROACH
Authenticity
& Connection
​​I build rapport with my clients based on trust while fostering authenticity. Each and everyone one of us deserves to explore what it means to live authentically in a safe and non-judgmental environment. We all have our individual roads to growth and I am honored to have your permission to walk beside you as you discover what that looks like for you. Whether that be the “you” you lost or the “you” you want to discover.
