Christina Ebbers, MA
Psychologist
“I help adults and parents in processing distressing experiences, inner patterns and tensions. People come to me with a wide range of concerns. Some experience persistent tension, internal blocks or difficult relationship dynamics. Others seek help with anxiety, intense emotions or physical symptoms that reflect psychological strain. Significant, upsetting or traumatic events can also play a role. In my online practice, I offer a safe and confidential space where every life story is welcome. Together, we work through what feels burdensome and gradually release inner tension, creating space for greater freedom, clarity and stability. Along the way, new possibilities often emerge, helping life feel lighter and more manageable.”
