Christine Giresi

Ellenton, FL
Christine Giresi is a compassionate therapist dedicated to supporting adults and elders (65+) through their emotional journeys. She understands that all human behavior is deeply rooted in thoughts and feelings, as well as the ability to cope with emotions. With a focus on creating positive and sustainable changes, Christine aims to guide her clients toward a more content and fulfilling life. She emphasizes the importance of the 'here and now', empowering individuals to take control of their current lives rather than dwelling on the past. In her practice, Christine fosters a non-judgmental, confidential environment that encourages self-expression, allowing clients to walk away feeling more mindful, aware, knowledgeable, and empowered. Recognizing the healing power of laughter, she incorporates humor into her sessions to make the therapeutic process enjoyable. Christine challenges the social stigma surrounding emotional therapy, asserting that individuals from all walks of life, including CEOs, professional athletes, and even fellow therapists, seek help through therapy. She empathizes with the initial challenge of making that first appointment, understanding that feelings of anger, sadness, happiness, and fear are all part of the human experience. Christine's own journey through significant losses in her youth led her to seek therapy, highlighting her profound understanding of the psychological impact of grief. With a diverse set of therapy modalities including Compassion Focused, Trauma Focused, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Christine is poised to help clients navigate through issues such as depression, trauma, and coping skills, ultimately leading them towards healing and growth.
