All About Mountains Therapy
Mountains Therapy is all about empowering clients to take care of their mental health by providing a safe space for people to explore challenges and develop strategies for personal growth. Founder, Christina Andino, LCSW, MSW started Mountains Therapy as a casual, judgment-free zone to elevate mental well-being through therapy and counseling.
Christina told The Montclair Girl that “being a guide for others as they navigate life’s challenges and witnessing their personal growth along the way” makes her job rewarding. And that is exactly what the practice prides itself on. “To those who may be hesitant to seek support, I invite you to consider the transformative power of therapy,” Andino shared.
The local private practice specializes in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, OCD, and PTSD and provides in-person and virtual sessions for people in New Jersey, North Carolina, Florida, and Utah with or without insurance.
Mountains Therapy is located at 20 Lackawanna Plaza in Montclair.
