Welcome !

My name is Christine Chiu and I’m a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. Since 2007, I have been working in private practice, serving the SF & Bay Area communities.  

I have 15 years of clinical experience, working primarily with adults, couples, and families, helping them navigate a myriad of life experiences, including:

Anxiety & Panic, Career Counseling, Depression, Emotional and Spiritual Health, Faith/ Church Experiences, Life Transitions, Relationship & Attachment Issues, and Trauma.

My vision is to support, educate, and encourage individuals and families toward emotional health and restoration. My approach to healing is integrative, depending on the clients needs. I value a culturally-sensitive approach to counseling, and will intentionally consider one’s background, faith, and experiences when working with individuals and families.

I have experience and training in: Attachment-Based therapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavioral therapy, Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Trauma-Informed therapy, and Gospel-Centered counseling. I especially enjoy integrating one’s spiritual journey into the therapy process if this is of particular interest to the client.

In addition to therapy, I’ve had the privilege to teach courses on Basic Counseling and Emotional Health in the Bay Area and in China. Our communities are foundational in the healing journey and it is important for all of us to be compassionate healers and advocates of emotional health. For a list of my workshops and presentations, please view my Curriculum Vitae.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.
