Christine Fisher is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 9 years of experience who specializes in anxiety, depression, self-esteem, stress, and trauma. No matter where someone starts, it’s possible to have a life with peace, joy, and healthy relationships. Christine has successfully helped many clients move forward on this journey.
Christine has a bachelor's and master’s degree from Huntington University.

Christine values personalizing treatment to each client to ensure it is effective. She creates an open and accepting environment where every client can feel safe. "Healing, growth, and change happen when a person feels heard and accepted. With compassion and teamwork, difficult thoughts and emotions can be untangled and start to heal," says Christine.
Do you find yourself in emotional chaos and not able to connect to healthy relationships? Do you find yourself stuck with coping strategies that don’t work? Do you struggle to feel as though you know yourself and understand your needs, and how to have these met in your daily life? Many people struggle with these issues and it's possible to make progress no matter where you start on this journey. Therapeutic work can focus on current urgent needs, deeper healing work, or a balance of both. Therapy with Christine can help a person move from chaos to compassion to growth.

My go-to approach for helping people in grief and loss counseling is creating a safe and comfortable environment.
Some of the tools I teach in grief and loss counseling include:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in grief and loss counseling when they consistently utilize learned skills.
Clients can supplement their time in grief and loss counseling with daily reflections and targeted readings.
To prepare for their first grief and loss counseling session, an individual can identify daily challenges.
Grief and loss counseling helps people grieve difficult losses including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. It helps people navigate their grief process and eventually accept, understand, and move forward from their loss. Thriveworks grief therapists in Newton, MA have specific experience, training, and skills that enable them to best support grieving individuals.
Grief and loss counseling isn’t one-size-fits-all, but it involves sharing about your loss and then working with your counselor to acknowledge and accept your new reality in its wake. Your provider at Thriveworks in Newton, MA will design your treatment plan around your unique needs and goals for therapy, applying the counseling techniques that best support them.
If you have recently experienced an event like the death of a loved one, a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or another major life change, then you may want to seek grief and loss counseling. Grief can be caused by many experiences and events, so if you feel that you are having trouble moving on from a certain event or find that it is still impacting your life and functioning, grief and loss counseling can help you process it more effectively so that you can move on and once again find fulfillment and satisfaction in your life.
There are many counseling theories for treating grief, one of the most frequently used being the dual process model of grief which helps people acknowledge who or what they’ve lost through rumination while also adjusting to the new roles and identities that this loss has now placed on them. There are also many commonly used therapy approaches used in grief and loss counseling, including Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and traumatic grief therapy.
Grief & loss counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
For many, grief and loss counseling lasts for about 6 months. For others, it may last shorter or longer, depending on the severity of their loss and their grief.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
