Dr. Christine Marston is a Licensed Psychologist In Bucks County
It’s a strength to seek out help when life is difficult. I’m a psychologist licensed by the state of Pennsylvania, practicing in Bucks County and I hope to empower you to make sense out of your current issues and find ways to cope with life’s challenges. I’m a mother, dog lover and therapist whose life’s work is helping people improve their wellness and mental health. I offer a full range of therapeutic services for a variety of problems.
Your First Visit
Finding the right therapist / client match and your comfort in therapy are important factors in how helpful therapy will be. Choose a provider with experience in your specific issue and know the credentials of who you are entrusting with your care. During our first visit, we will get to know each other and identify what you would like help with. At the end of the first visit, we’ll create a plan for moving forward.
Who I Work With
As a seasoned Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, I treat patients with anorexia, bulimia, bingeing/emotional eating and exercise issues in adolescence and adulthood. I collaborate with dietitians and physicians to ensure you’re getting the best care possible. At any given time, approximately two-thirds of my practice is people with eating issues. This experience combined with my knowledge of current research-based treatment techniques, allows me to deliver the highest level of care to my clients.
My practice also includes women, men and teens dealing with relationship problems and divorce, people struggling with life transitions, depression, anxiety and trauma. In my experience, most people have times in their life where they would benefit from the awareness and support therapy offers.
Background
My doctorate in Clinical Psychology with a Health Psychology emphasis was awarded from the California School of Professional Psychology. I received expert training in eating disorders during my post-doctoral training at the renowned Renfrew Center for Eating Disorders, a residential treatment center for eating disorders in Philadelphia. I acted as therapist and exercise facilitator and was invited to stay on as a primary therapist, practicing there for several years. I’m dedicated to eating disorder recovery, providing individual and family therapy in my practice.
I use a variety of strategies to create change, combining tools and themes from evidence based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Family Based Therapy (FBT) and Brainspotting to help you. But most important is the therapeutic relationship between me as your psychologist and you as my client.
It’s my goal to help guide you during unsettling times in your life. Contact me here or at call 267-221-6478.
I see clients at my private farm office in Pipersville PA and telehealth video sessions if appropriate.
