Empowering Families Counseling
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, Certified Parent Child Interaction Therapist (PCIT), Certified Perinatal Mental Health
I’m passionate about helping parents recognize their strengths and feel confident in the way they show up for their children. Parenting can feel overwhelming—especially when you're navigating challenging behaviors, anxiety, or the emotional ups and downs of everyday life. Many of the parents I work with come in feeling stuck in cycles of guilt, frustration, and self-doubt.
Together, we shift that.
I help parents move from feeling out of control to feeling calm, clear, and empowered. Through practical, real-time strategies, you’ll learn how to respond to your child’s behavior with confidence, set healthy limits without constant battles, and build a stronger, more connected relationship with your child.
It is possible to enjoy your time with your child while guiding them toward positive behavior and emotional resilience—and to feel secure and grounded in your parenting along the way.
If you’re ready to feel more confident, supported, and in control of your parenting, I’d love to help you get there.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What makes my therapy practice stand out is my commitment to truly meeting each client where they are, with authenticity, compassion, and respect for their unique experiences. I take a neurodiversity-affirming, strengths-based approach that focuses not on “fixing” clients, but on understanding and empowering them. I prioritize building a genuine, trusting relationship, creating a space where clients feel safe to be themselves without judgment. By blending evidence-based strategies with flexibility and warmth, I help clients develop practical tools while also fostering self-acceptance, confidence, and meaningful personal growth.
