Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Welcome! My name is Christina McClarren, and I am a provider at our McCandless office. I offer both in-person and Telehealth therapy appointments. I enjoy working with all age groups and specialize working with children and adolescents. My background is very diverse and I have worked in correctional settings, school settings, community mental health, and my experience ranges from group therapy, individual therapy, and family therapy. I have experience working with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma, behavioral disorders, personality disorders, and chronic suicidality and self-harm.
Together we will create a safe space where you are able to be yourself and begin working on mutually agreed upon goals. My therapeutic style blends Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavioral Therapy (DBT), expressive arts therapy, solution-focused, and trauma informed care. We decide together what treatment looks like for you.
I know that reaching out for help can be scary and daunting, and you have no idea where to start. Just know that I am here as your guide and will coach and support you along the way. Together, we decide things and learn from each other. I look forward to working with you!
