Christine Lewis, LMFT, is a certified EMDR therapist and consultant, and youth trauma specialist dedicated to helping children, teens, and families heal and thrive. In addition to EMDR, some of the additional skills Christine brings to her practice includes specialized training in Adoption Permanency Curriculum, Adoption Clinical Training, Pathways to Permanence (parenting curriculum for kids w/trauma), Integrative Attachment Trauma Protocol for Children and Safe and Sound Protocol.
With over 28 years of clinical experience, Christine brings deep expertise in complex trauma, attachment, foster care, adoption, grief and loss, and parenting. Her extensive career spans high-acuity residential treatment facilities (Levels 12 and 14), hospitals, schools, adoption agencies and outpatient practices, giving her a well-rounded and grounded perspective on the unique challenges young people face.
Working through an attachment-focused lens, Christine creates a safe, welcoming, and engaging space where young people and their caregivers can experience genuine connection, feel deeply understood, and begin the process of emotional repair. While she works directly with youth one-on-one, Christine holds a core conviction that lasting healing happens within the family system. She integrates family sessions into her work to mend relational wounds, strengthen attachment bonds, and build a lasting foundation for resilience and growth.
