These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Christine "Chris" Coleman-Sandwell. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Chris is an excellent therapist. She helps me be thoughtful in considering what my goals are in therapy. She is regularly connecting outside of video visits and this helps keep on doing beneficial work. She is a fantastic therapist.

Chris has been an amazing support during a difficult time. On top of our sessions, she has reached out to me via messages regularly, which I found surprising and proactive. She has given me worksheets to complete that have been helpful. But the most important thing is that she has understood the situation that I am in and given me tools, in real time, to be able to address complicated situations with moving pieces. I could not recommend her more.

She is amazing. Very easy to talk to don’t feel like I’m being judged. And she listens to both sides of the issues

I was a little hesitant about starting therapy but I feel like she understands where I’m coming from and it doesn’t feel like she’s telling me what to do but more of holding up a mirror for me of helping guide me to reveal what I need or want.

She has been the absolute best helping my son as well as us navigate the ways with him as well. Would 100% recommend her.

She gave me a new way to look at things and it made me realize I’m being pretty hard on myself. She is easy to talk and nice.

It has been very meaningful. I’ve started dealing with some things that I haven’t dealt with my whole life.

Work with me!
