About Me

I'm Charissa (she/her). I've been privileged to live and work as a counselor in Alaska for over 10 years, moving north two years ago after 8 years in Sitka. I enjoy working with adults and elders around a variety of concerns and have speciality training and experience in the use of trauma focused therapies including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR). At Find Your Line Counseling, my mission is to support you in your own unique journey of growth and healing so you can confidently commit to the lines you choose to take - whatever the season of your life!

Education & Experience

I completed my masters in counseling in 2013 and have worked full time as a counselor in Alaska since 2014. I was first trained in EMDR in 2016 and have completed a number of follow up trainings since that time, expanding my skills to include the Flash technique.
