About SanaVita Therapy

---

I’m Christi, an associate licensed counselor for the state of Alabama. I have a deep passion for working with individuals struggling with eating disorders and the LGBTQ+ community. My therapeutic approach involves starting with a strong base: letting you have a place to feel safe and secure, a place where you hold control. It’s in this place where we can focus on how trauma affects us, and how to move forward while untangling the knots it’s left behind. Together, we’ll explore your story at your own pace, honoring your experiences without judgment. I believe in the power of collaboration, compassion, and curiosity—working with you to rediscover your strengths, redefine your sense of self, and reclaim the parts of you that may have been silenced.

I earned my M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of Montevallo, and outside of my therapeutic work, I usually enjoy learning Chinese, playing games, kickball, and thrifting. 

Healing isn’t linear, but you don’t have to do it alone.

I am taking new patients.  I accept Blue Cross and Blue shield, Cigna and BHS insurance.  I also accept clients needing private pay agreements.  

I generally work in the evenings.  I am available for weekend work upon request.
