About

I am continuously in awe of the beauty and growth that comes out of the struggle for my clients when they learn how to heal and empower themselves. I believe that inside all of us is an innate ability to cultivate the gardens of our souls and our relationships and restore harmony and balance to our lives in a way we may have never thought possible. Sometimes we just need a safe, unbiased, sacred space to really focus on what it is that our soul is trying to tell us. Then, with some gentle, unbiased guidance and the acquisition of a few new insights and tools, we can free ourselves from our often unconsciously self-imposed limitations. My main emphasis and experience is in both couples counseling/marriage counseling and individual counseling for adults and adolescents. I also work with parents living with their emerging adult and/or adult children, helping them to have more conscious, mutually empowering relationships with one another. Some of the major aspects of my role as your counselor are: to help you identify your goals; heal/resolve/make peace with any past wounds; to help you to align with your own innate strengths and abilities; to collaborate with you in the therapeutic process so that you feel empowered and supported on your path of healing and growth; and to provide you with some new insights and skills to aid you on this magnificent journey. The difficulties that we experience in life are almost always an opportunity for growth. Understanding this allows us to spend less time in survivor mode as we gradually find ourselves coming more and more into living our life through our authentic, most empowered aspect of ourself, our soul. Then, we are able to embrace difficulty and unresolved grief in a way that allows us to heal, rather than cling, escape, and suffer continuously. Just as we are able to experience the bliss of the divine love within us that is unveiled more and more as we learn to care for our souls.

Yet they would like to have a better idea of what they will really get out of it before they invest their time and money. Ultimately, what you will get out of couple’s counseling depends on several factors. Research has shown that a […]

    Christine is an amazing therapist and person. My husband and I started seeing her at a point in our relationship where we really thought there was no hope for us any longer. We had been through some very hard times for about two years before that and it really worst down. We started seeing each other as the enemy and treating each other as such. C we wouldn’t have known where to start. Christine really helped us stop and refocus on ourselves and each other. She was able to offer genuine guidance on how to get out of our old habits and stop the negative storytelling to ourselves and about ourselves and each other when things would get hard. She really helped us recognize and respect for absent flows of love and life. The art of conscious love is definitely an amazing thing and she is an amazing person who definitely wants to teach that. She was without a doubt there for us if/when we need her. She genuinely cares about her clients and their long-term well-being. This is apparent in the time, attention, support and care she offers both in your sessions and any other time you need her (I always couples call her and know that she would return my call asap). My husband and I are in such an amazing place now. Our communication, love, and support is stronger than it’s ever been or could have hoped it would be. Yes, my husband and I did the work but we wouldn’t of known where to start( or how to stay on track at times) if it wasn’t for Christine. She is absolutely wonderful, and I would definitely recommend her, in fact I already have to several people. If you’re looking for someone who will really support you and your soul mission call this amazing woman!

    This is a review in regards to my therapist Christine Dufond.  Christine is the first therapist that I have ever been to. Christine was referred to me by one of my dear friends. The moment I met Christine I knew without a doubt that we had a connection.  I could feel it in the spiritual realm. I didn’t really have any particular reason why I was there except for I felt called to go since my friend had referred her to me. I had a couple of sessions with her on my own. I deeply appreciated her spiritual depth and compassionate heart. As I got to know her more, I thought it would be a good idea to bring in my partner. Christine specializes in couples counseling. We were in the beginning stages of our relationship.  We are both in our late 30’s. Having past baggage from a previous long term relationship was making the transition into a new healthy relationship uncharted territory. Christine helped us to navigate our new relationship and remove “small splinters” before they developed into festering wounds.  Christine is understanding and intuitive.  We have appreciated the guidance and understanding she has offered us.
    With sincerity and gratitude,
    V.M.H.
    Christine provided us with a safe space and a realistic perspective at a time when our world was falling apart. Christine’d deep kindness, knowledge, and commitment in supporting as we navigated stormy waters was exactly what we needed. And it saved our marriage.
