Dr. Christine Wilcox, LCSW, LISW

Dr. Christine Wilcox brings twenty-seven years of clinical experience to a private practice devoted to individual women’s mental health for adults ages 18 and older. She is licensed as an LCSW and an LISW - LCSW meaning Licensed Clinical Social Worker and LISW meaning Licensed Independent Social Worker - credentials that indicate extensive training and authorization to provide psychotherapy.

Her work spans clinical consulting, nursing, and roles in elementary, secondary, and college settings, as well as long-term care, hospice, inpatient and intensive outpatient programs, hospitals, community services, and psychiatric programs. In private practice she concentrates on supporting women through life transitions, relationship challenges, grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other concerns that affect daily functioning and well-being.

Therapeutic methods emphasize education, modeling positive coping strategies, and introducing clear boundaries to help create desired change. Her practice integrates evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and solution-focused techniques to address symptoms and build practical skills. Holistic options such as mindfulness, meditation, attention to nutrition and exercise, and integrative wellness approaches are also woven into care when appropriate.

She encourages clients to adopt self-care practices that support mind and body, and she aims to make beginning or returning to therapy accessible and manageable. When previous counseling has been difficult, she invites prospective clients to breathe and consider that support and change are possible.
